Hey,

I am pretty new to flash, so this might sound like a pretty stupid question, so be prepared. I want to add links to some of the text in a scrolling text field, but it seems that i cant do that unless i change the text type from dynamic to static text, but then the scrollbar doesn’t work. Can someone help me to get scrolling text with links?
