I would look at GDI+ drawings in a scrollable container. VFPx has the GDI+ things you need, and SPSBlog has the scrollable container. FoxForward had a session on this.
If you don't want to get into the GDI+, objects in the scrolling container could work. I think drawing lines will be erased when you scroll.
