OK. I have a template site that im trying to edit. I'm very new to flash. I
figured out how to edit pretty much all I need but I want to add a scrolling
text feild on one of the pages. I googled it and found the following...

I create a text box, set to dynamic, and make it multiple lines. then from
the components menue I drag and drop the UIScrollbar on to the text boxt. I
can then add the text. When I do this in a blank "new" project and test movie
it works great. But if I try this on the page of my template and test the
movie the scroll bar is there but blank and does nothing.
Anyone know what im doing wrong??? I need to have this feature on this page.
Please if someone can help I would appreciate it!

I am guessing that I need to add some action script or something somewhere but
I think it's a bit over my head at the moment. I've been searching and
searching for some tut that was fairly easy to follow. I just don't
understand why if I creat a new project I can make a scroll text bar fine and
it works great when I test the movie. But when I add it to the site I have
already it dosn't work. I see the bar but there's no buttons to scroll or
anything. It's just a blank long rectangle. I read something about an addon
called UltimateScroller. Would anyone recomend purchasing that? I'd like to
just be able to learn how to do and save me the 35 bucks. Any help would be
much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
