FYI the OP posted feedback about the Label in a Frame approach in another
thread (last message in this link).

I've just pondered this one.

My easy but dirty hack, a dummy textbox of size 0x0 anywhere.. ..then
.Activate it to send the annoying cursor elsewhere.

Anybody know how to highlight all the text AND set the first line in
focus?
..I suppose I could just do the colour inverting myself...

Another idea, put an ordinary Label in a Frame.
Give the frame a vertical scrollbar and size the frame to suit.
Optionally
remove the Frame's caption, set Frame's BorderStyle=1, remove the
Label's
border.

Manually or at run time set the ScrollHeight to Label's height (or tweak
as
required).

PS, ensure the Label really is IN the Frame and not merely over it.

Thanks. I want a verticle scrollbar on a label.
That may not be allowed.... but if it goes on the Form,
how it is controlled?

Thanks - Kirk
