I have coded a scrolling field example by using the example on page 
122-124 in the Palm Programming book.  It works pretty well but there 
are a couple of quirks.  I have tried the exampe code and it does 
this on different examples that I have tried, so it seems that I'm 
missing something in understanding these examples from Palm Prog.

1) I have a multi line field.  When I get to the last character of the
last line and enter 1 more character, the scrollbar pops up but the
field does NOT show the next line.  The character is actually there
but the field was not updated to show the insertion point.  ONLY,
after entering one additional character, does the field scroll down
to display the next line.  Why does it take two characters before I
can see the next line?  How do I fix this? 

2) I cannot select the text unless the last line in the field is 
displayed.  Why does this work this way?  How do you fix it? 

Is this a known behavior of this example?  What's up?   

Thanks
