My problem is that I’m able to get dynamic database driven text into the text box and scrolling properly but when it does it won’t render the data as html code. I’m not sure if this is because I’m reading the data straight from an asp file and not a text or html file. Does anyone know how I can get the text to render as html? I know there are limitaitions to what flash can render but i just want to be able to enter links into the text. You can see the example I’ve got working at [http://users.apex2000.net/rbrown/asp/flash\_db/](http://users.apex2000.net/rbrown/asp/flash_db/) . Thanks in advance.

thanks, that worked great. Now if anyone knows how to make the links in the text box look differently than the regular text that would be great.

like change the link color to a different color than the rest of the text or underline the link.
