I am using flash mx 2004 and i already downloaded the UI Compnents Set 2 which brings the original scrollbar from flash mx.  
My problem is that when i make a text box and then drag the scrollbar, the scrollbar wont stick to the text, it wont work at all.  
How can i fix this??

Thank you

You can’t use a text box for the scroll bar. You must convert it to an mc, give it an actionscript name, and then set that as the target for the scrollbar. Then, you can try it again.
