read-only edit box
Some time back, I requested information about displaying read-only text in an
edit box so the user could see it, but the user wouldn't be allowed to
highlight it or put the cursor in the field. (The read-only property still
allows the user to use the cursor and highlight.)
Bob helpfully suggested to Disable the box to avoid the cursor problem.
Although this helps by preventing the user from thinking they can type in the
box, it also disables the scroll bar. If the user needs to scroll the box to
read all the text, they cannot do it when the box is disabled.
Does anyone have any further suggestions?
thanks for your help!
