    Automatic Scrolling Text

    I've gone through some of the tutorials on creating scrollboxes, and I have one up and working that pulls its content from an external text file. The user clicks up and down buttons to scroll. In looking through the posts already on the site I haven't seen anything on how to make the box scroll its text automatically and continuously upon loading. Does anyone have any ideas.

    Thanks,
    Bill

    You might also try using the code you used in the scroll up button on a frame, instead of the button.

    I downloaded and ran the attachment, but it didn't seem to do anything. Is it possible to upload the .fla file so that I can deconstruct what the file is to do?

    Thanks,
    Bill
