The dragger in my scroll bar seems to work at a good pace but when I hold down the buttons the text seems to crawl at snails pace up and down. Is there anything I could add to the action script to speed up the rate at which the text scrolls when the buttons are held down? I think I found this script in the kirupa site somewhere. I tried adjusting the “speed” but it didn’t seem to change anything.
(using Flash MX 2004 with ActionScript 2.0)

this.startDrag(false, this._x, this._parent.y, this._x, this._parent.y+this._parent.bar._height-this._height);
dragger.scrollEase();

this.stopDrag();
