Re: calculating max vscroll

[Chris Sheffield]

Using (The formattedheight of field "myField1") - (the height of  
field "myfield1") doesn't seem to work quite right.  When I calculate  
that value for the field I get 67 (formattedHeight is 392 and height  
is 325).  When I scroll it to the max and check the vscroll property,  
it turns out to be 61 or 62, depending on whether I drag the  
scrollbar or use my mouse wheel, respectively (and that's another  
question:  why would it scroll more when using the mouse wheel?   
Seems odd to me).

Anyway, the scrolling problem has gone away thanks to Jonathan.  I  
started looking at the borders of the two fields and that was the  
difference. Originally neither one had a border.  At one point I  
added a border to the main field, but didn't to the other. That was  
causing the weird scrolling behavior.  Once I added a border to the  
other field it worked fine.  :-)

Thanks everyone.

As Jonathon pointed out,  you the maximum scroll can be calculated  
with this:

"myfield1")

But you also need to be sure that both fields have the same number  
of lines, and that lines don't wrap in either field. Depending on  
what you're doing, you may need to pad one field with blank lines.
