hi,

sorry about the confusion, it's not actually component, it's a trick.

in that application, you may have checked that the messages and users lists
are totally self developed.

and i assume that you can create simple scrollbar as well, the tirck is that
you actually do not scroll any mc(s) using mask trick, but you simply chenge
the index of the array. then on each refresh, update the listbox content.

the good thing about this type of grids/lists that you can use MM scrollbar
comoponent to change the array index, and use it's event to refresh the
content.

but that way you are again including MM component wich is about 20-30kb, so
you've to create your own scrollbar also.

i developed this first time when Flash5 was available, and no sign of MM
bultin components. also if you go with your own scrollbar, and grid/list,
they'll size no more than 5kb (without raster imgs). and you'll have the
full controll over your grid/list.

i belive this implementation is the fastest as of my experience. i've also
implemented same kind of tricks in our latest product, FriendlyGhost.


best,
