Hello fellow Kirupians

I’ve been working from the simple scrollbar tutorial at

[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/scrollbar.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/flash8/scrollbar.htm)

and got it pretty much looking/working the way I want to.

Is there any way to add an auto-scrolling feature? I’m populating my MC with about 20-25 dynamic textfields from an XML file. The user I showed it to suggested I add autoscrolling along with the scrollbar. That way the movie would automatically start playing, and would minimize any input required from the user.

Thanks in advance
