Well, it's not perfect. There's no indication that there's extra text in either direction, and the 'scrolling' is simply the current text going away and the new text appearing. Good enough, and this approach isn't hard on the batteries, either, as the text is only scrolled when you get to a 20 character limit, rather than on each character. *shrug* onward and upwards. -Ken -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
