Horizontal display bar

[Shailendra Vijayvergia]

Hi all,

I'm not clear what to do with this prblem

I've a text member with following porlperties:

Framing: fixed
Word wrop: No
Editable: No

I mean it is single line dynamic text box. Now what i want to display one line information in the text box. If the length of information string is bigger than text-box width, then it should display information in parts, ie, it will diplay a part of the information at a time and other part will be displayed after few milliseconds.

For ex., if information is somebody's name, "Anthony Francis" and is bigger than text field then, it willbe showed in two parts-- Anthony and Francis. It can be called as a horizontal display bar, but not scrolling (Flashed display bar).


I was trying to use timeout object but not able to do so.


Please help me out.

Thanx

regards,
Shailendra
