Hi,

I have tried MANY times to create a scrolling text box using the tutorial on this site, I am able to edit the object actions for the text box, but not the buttons...it just won't let me (even when I select expert mode from the object actions box)....what am I doing wrong? Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Is it that you cant see the code or you can see it but cant edit it?

//also - has anyone successfully completed that scrolling text tutorial? If so, if anyone feels so inclined to post it here, that might be helpful to me.

Zip it using winzip and if its under 100 kb, u can attach it in a post.
