i am having trouble that i hope somebody may be able to help me with. i have a text field that i can have scroll 1 line at a time, each time i click the scroll button. what i would like to do is have the text be able to continue scrolling while the button is being depressed. any help would be greatly appreciated. below is the code i already have implemented. thanks.

//-------------scroll buttons--------------\\

upButtonContact.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, scrollUp);
downButtonContact.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLIC K, scrollDown);

function scrollUp(event:MouseEvent):void
{
textBox.scrollV --;
}

function scrollDown(event:MouseEvent):void
{
textBox.scrollV ++;
}

//-------------/scroll buttons--------------\\
