Dynamic text fields, formatting

I have two questions:

the first, can you use html in a text file and format COLOR in a dynamic text field in flash??

the second, i’m having trouble with maxscroll. I want my text in a text file to go to the end of the text when imported. When there are more lines in the text than can fit in the text field, the maxscroll works great and jumps right to the end. If there are less, the textbox says undefined. Is there a way to trigger it so that when the text in the text field goes over the size of the textbox, maxscroll kicks in???
there has to be an if function…

Its a simple problem, but my brain can’t handle it at the moment :wink:
thanks everyone!
