Text box control in Word form

[Ravi]

Hello,

I have a form in a Word template with a Userform. I want
to display some information, which, when it is long, I
want the user to be able to scroll and see. I dont want
the user to be able to change it.

Which is the control to be used?

I tried textbox control, but if I set the Enable to Yes,
user can edit. If I set it to No, it wont display scroll
bars and he cannot see the complete information. I dont
want to increase the size and make it multi line, it wont
look nice on the form.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Ravi

Generally, you can set any of controls for listing info.
for MatchEntry to 0 - fmMatchEntryFirstLetter. This
prevents the user from typing in any info. You can only
jump to the first instance of the character typed, but it
won't allow any info. to be typed over it.

When I have lots of info. for the user to see, rather than
using a drop down style, I usually use a Listbox as
follows:

Set the ListStyle to 0 - fmliststyleplain
Set the MatchEntry to 0 - fmMatchEntryFirstLetter

Good luck.
