Thank you very much for providing the tutorials on this site. I have found them very helpful and easy to understand.  
But now I have a problem.  
I have worked through the simple scrollbar tutorial and got the scrolling text to work even when customising the scrollbar myself but my problem comes when I try to scroll dynamic text. Static works fine but the text area is blank in my movie if I scroll dynamic text. I want the text to be dynamic because I want to use CSS styling so I also worked through the Using CSS styling tutorial. This is fine on its own but when I combine the two, the text doesn’t appear.  
Before I upload my flash file for further help, I wonder if there is something very obvious that I am missing that I should have added or be doing (so obvious it isn’t mentioned in the tutorials).  
Thank you for you help
