TextField + ScrollBar?

My app uses quite a few TextField classes, and I’m realizing that they are no longer big enough, yet I cant make them any bigger. So the obvious solution is to add ScrollBars to the TextFields that need them (preferably they only appear when needed).

I’m finding it surprisingly difficult to figure out how to do this. Ive read every word of both the http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/text/TextField.htmlTextField and http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0/ActionScriptLangRefV3/fl/controls/ScrollBar.html ScrollBar classes, but I don’t see any way to combine the two.

I was hoping it would be as simple as something like this:


var s:ScrollBar = new ScrollBar();
var t:TextField = new TextField(s);

Can anyone shed some light on this? I’m sure everyone here has already solved this problem, after all, scrollbars are pretty basic…

I’m looking for AS3 code only please!

Thanks in advance.
