Maybe I've overlooked something, but I need more eyes to look at this and tell me what I'm doing wrong. I'm certain I was following the right procedure to making this thing work, but maybe not.

Included are 2 files:
"scrollMe.fla" and "message.txt"

I dropped in 4 of the same paragraph just to test the scroll. Can someone help me out?

Thanks!
Rob

hey, I posted a simple fix for your solution. According to what I read on the Macromedia site, this is the only method in which you can get the scroll component to work. So give it a look.....

There is another method you can use to scroll dynamic text laoded in from a text file. When I get a bit more time I'll post an example for that.

Thanks, man. I don't know why I though I needed an outside text file. I got used to using them for another project and didn't think of the obvious.

And here's the more complex one with custom buttons. This version can scroll dynamic text from a text file.

I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions!
