Overview
Another great VB Web control that allows you to easily scroll text left, right, up or down. Features include...
Full Source Code Included
Scroll Left, Right, Up or Down
Load text from files
Set speed, colour, font etc.
Only 32KB!
I did extensive testing. If a line of text is too long, the whole thing gets out of whack. Make your lines shorter. I was successful in scrolling 240 lines of 10 characters each. I stopped there, could have kept going.
There are certain limitations for the TextBox control:
The text displayed by the control is contained in the Text property. By default, you can enter up to 2048 characters in a text box. If you set the MultiLine property to true, you can enter up to 32 KB of text. The Text property can be set at design time with the Properties window, at run time in code, or by user input at run time. The current contents of a text box can be retrieved at run time by reading the Text property.
If you need to have more text displayed then perhaps you should try using the RichTextBox Control.
Good Luck

This control is just what I need for an app..
but it stops displaying text after a certain number of characters.
Can someone help me overcome this problem?

Would like to know what the limitation on text that can be entered?
How many characters? How many lines?
Can this be overcome? If so How to do it?
Thanks, very good text scrolling control but does not scroll when I am processing some other query in the background. I may not be doing it properly. Please guide me if you have any solution.
Thanks again

I was just wondering if the backcolor could be set to transparent
i.e. I would like to have the words scroll over a jpg image.
thanks,
Excellent...Keep up good work....
