[LEFT]Hello 👋

Another frustrated flash user 🙂  
After an online test in flash I calculate the results and then list the results on a certificate page. This works and prints fine but on the next page there is a scrollable text box. I need to make a button to print the whole text box but can only find a way to print the text that is currently viewable. I’ve searched a lot online but only seem to find a group of people with the same problem and no solution.

I don’t have any code for an example really but it is just case of finding anyway to print the whole contents of the text box. It might be 6 lines, it might be 40 depending on the test results

Any help would be VERY much appreciated, I would like to go home today with some hair left 🙂  
Thanks in advance,  
Oli
