>>I'm stumped. I have an edit box on a form in an application ( exe ). The scrollbar property on the edit box is set to 2. When the exe runs from inside VFP7, this snippet of code in the edit box's init method:
>>
>>WAIT WINDOW 'This scrollbar setting = ' + ALLTRIM( STR( this.ScrollBars )) NOWAIT

>>says the scrollbar setting is 2. And, sure enough, the vertical scroll bar appears like it should.

>>When the Exe is running as a stand-alone application, it returns the value of 1. I want it to be 2, but even programatically changing the value in the init method to 2 doesn't work. What am I missing?
