Hi i am trying to create a flash movie that has scrolling text in it. The text should automatically scroll continuously until it gets to the end and then go back to the start.

I can do this with static text or an image, however i am trying to do it with dynamic text which means the movie clip changes length each time the text changes. Does anyone know a way of doing this

cheers
