Charles I tried that and no go, it still scrolls the canvas and now the
drawrect up and past the rectangle. Now I use the rectangle as a backing
of white to show of the canvas. I have only one canvas. Should I have
another canvas for the drawrect or what?

Hello all,
I found some examples of how to scroll a CANVAS using the SCROLL control
that is within just the Main WINDOW. It works great, but I need to have
other things in the Main Window too besides the darn canvas.
Rectangle = Border for Canvas
Canvas = scrolling field with controls on it, static and the like.
Scrollbar = to scroll up and down to see all the controls
What happens is the Canvas over shoots the Rectangle and looks like
CRAP! I have StaticText fields in the canvas and when you scroll past
the top its like the Canvas is sliding over the Rectangle mask, what I
call it, and casts over the other controls on top of the Rectangle.
this method works great fore pictures but I have NO pictures in this
canvas, its just a tool to use to scroll the controls is all.
Does any one know how to setup a canvas to be WITHIN the limits of a
Rectangle or whatever control to confine it to a specific height and
width?
I guess I am asking is how to keep the canvas UNDER the rectangle object
instead of showing OVER the rectangle object, or how do I do this if not
with a canvas?
Don't USE a Rectangle control. Instead, draw the BORDER in the Canvas
itself using Graphics.DrawRect in the Canvas.Paint event handler.
