I have a deadline and am relatively new to flash - I’ve used a tutorial to load dynamic text into a text field using buttons. The code on each button is

on (release) {  
loadText = new loadVars();  
loadText.load(“TEXT1.txt”);  
loadText.onLoad = function(success) {  
if (success) {  
// trace(success);  
newsBox.html = true;  
newsBox.htmlText = this.myNews;  
}  
};  
}

Obviously button 2 loads “TEXT2.txt” and so on

But I need to scroll it using a dragger rather than up and down buttons provided in the components (whch don’t look great). I’m using flash 8 but saving out in 7. Can anyone help!!!
