-------------------------------- EDITED BY ME

scrollIncrement = 84;
glideIncrement = 10;
direction = 0;
dragFlag = false;

function doGlide() {
proroll._x += glideIncrement*direction;
scrollbar._x += glideIncrement*-direction;
if (scrollbar._x > 618) {
scrollbar._x = 618;
proroll._x = -642;
}
else if (scrollbar._x <24) {
scrollbar._x=24;
proroll._x = 0;
}

}

function doDrag() {
if (dragFlag == true) {
proroll._x = -scrollbar._x + 24;
updateAfterEvent();
}
}

Here's a modified version for you. This way, you can add any number of items (change proroll's width) and the scrollbar and scroll limits will automatically adjust.
