I've tried that, to no avail :-/ I'm thinking, could it possibly have something to do with using a Repeater Object in the VBox?
Here's an excerpt: <mx:VBox xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml" xmlns:utl="util.*" horizontalGap="2" backgroundColor="#FFFFFF" minHeight="1" vScrollPolicy="off"> <mx:Metadata> [Event("closeSearchWindow")] </mx:Metadata> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ public var results:Object; function fireCloseEvent():Void{ dispatchEvent({type:'closeSearchWindow'}); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:HBox backgroundColor="#C5CFE9" width="100%" height="10%"> <mx:Label text="Search Results 1 - 5 of 254"/> </mx:HBox> <mx:VBox width="100%" height="80%" vScrollPolicy="on"> <mx:Repeater id="rp" dataProvider="{results.searchResults.result}"> <utl:AFLink textAlign="left" label="{rp.currentItem.title}" textDecoration="underline" fontWeight="bold" color="#0033CC" width="100%" URL="{rp.currentItem.url}"/> <mx:Text text="{rp.currentItem.teaser}" width="100%"/> <mx:Label text="{rp.currentItem.url}" width="100%" color="#339933" fontWeight="bold"/> </mx:Repeater> </mx:VBox> <mx:Button width="100%" height="10%" label="Close" click="fireCloseEvent()" backgroundColor="#0066CC"/> </mx:VBox> -----Original Message----- From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Manish Jethani Sent: Thursday, August 04, 2005 11:20 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] vScrollPolicy acting real funny On 8/4/05, Sauro, Nick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have a SearchResults class which is a VBox.

Try setting minWidth="1" on the outer VBox and see if that helps.
