Hi, I need help with making custom scroll buttons for a dynamic  
text box, with external text. I am using this script at the moment  
but i doesnt seem to be doing anything at all.

To scroll up:

on (press) {  
scrollbarleft.scroll;  
scrollbarleft.scroll -= 1;  
}

Down:

on (press) {  
scrollbarleft.scroll;  
scrollbarleft.scroll += 1;  
}

Can anyone help me?
