Hi, its been a while since Ive used the forums, but I have a new question: How do I externally load a .txt file and make it able to scroll? It was easy in FMX but it seems harder with 2k4. I checked some already open threads, but to no avail. None of them really go into the loading of it.

I just need to load a text file I have on the net, and then when it loads, its scrollable.

Any help would be appreciated.
