I'm not sure if it's the easiest, but when I converted my XEF application
to have more that 24 lines (1996?), I did this.
Add a AREA attribute char. to )ATTR with scroll. Example:
% TYPE(TEXT) INTENS(HIGH)
| AREA(SCRL) EXTEND(ON)
Add the a name to the )BODY section where you want the scrollable data:
|MYAREA |
(note the | at the end also - col 80 in my case)
Define the data in )AREA section after the )BODY section
)AREA MYAREA
%some panel data line 1
%some panel data line 2
...
You can see a sample on my web site in XEFMENU or look at [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
