Hi Marcia:

Good to hear from you. I have eventually removed the control and replaced it with and edit control. The Sparese property for column1 has been set to .F.
The outcome is , yes, the editbox displays the contents, but is not wrapping the contents and I do not see the scroll bars either.

Yes, I do have a copy. Should it be downloaded?

Thanks Marcia.
