Is there an EASY way to put scroll bars on a form.

I saw one explanation, but I failed rocket science so I couldn't follow it. Eventually I will absorb it, but I'd like to finish this project for my company's use before year 2001!

Hi

There's a new link been added to the CodeGuru site (so new, the pages haven't
been updated yet to reflect it).

James Guo has written an ActiveX control that allows you to add scrollbars
to forms/pictureboxes and handles all the scrolling.

Download it from :

http://www.nease.net/~vbheaven/myApp/EasyScroll.zip

You will have to register the OCX once you've unzipped the file.

eg.

c:\windows\system\regsvr32 c:\unzipped\easyscroll\easyscroll.ocx

(or similar)

Great site, it has two things to look at, a control which does scroll bars, and a class. I took the class and used it, it works well! It uses the Windows API to create scrollbars.
