I have this activex control on my machine. The file name is fm20.dll and fm20enu.dll. I am not sure where they cme form, but my guess is from microsoft office, since thay are microsoft tools. To see if they are on your system use the options, controls, activex in the manu and scroll through all activex stuff. It comes up as microsoft forms 2.0 scroll bar. there is also a third party ocx available in the files section of the ut. it costs $25 last I checked. I have used the microsoft one to create a scrolling form for graphical layout, and it works great!
