Verticle Scroll Bar Not Displayed as Expected

P

I have a form with a text box.

The text box properties are set to allow verticle scroll bars.

The text box margins (L/R/T/B) are set to .02". This is to allow reading
the entries easier.

This is causing the scroll bar for the text box NOT to show, but when I set
the margins to 0", the scroll bar appears.

Is this a known bug? Any work-arounds?

I've never had to use scroll bars, but I'm pretty sure I've seen here or
elsewhere that the scrollbar will only appear if the data in the control is
large enough to require the scrollbar in order to be viewed. Setting the
margins to 0" would probably do this, while larger margins may show the data
without the need of the scrollbar.

It's a known issue, and AFAIK there is no work-around. If you want
scroll-bars, you can't have margins :-(
