>also - did you see why the program above didnt create a scrollbar ? the textbox is about 3x bigger than the window...

Well, if you weren't confused by now, hang it. It created the scroll bars for me. Funny thing, while I scrolled way down there, I don't think I got quite to the bottom of the form (cause I didn't see the bottom the the edt box's scroll bar).

VFP7, Win2K, you?
