I appreciate the responses, but I do not believe this will accomplish 
what I need. Masking is the closest so far, but the scroll bars 
create a problem.

Simply making items hidden, does hide viewable items, but leaves the 
container with a lot of blank space.

Essentially, I want to override the index or whatever values the 
scrollbar uses to determine the top and bottom of the container, and 
set my own values.
