I have two questions. The first is about scroll bars, and scrolling down via the arrow keys. How to a know if a user moved a scroll bar, and how can I tell the increment in which they moved it?
My second question is how do I disable the ability to edit an edit control?
Ae you using MFC, OWL, or WinAPI for the scrollbar?
A scrollbar will send a WM_VSCROLL or WM_HSCROLL message to its parent window when it scrolls.
The WinAPI way to get the position of a scrollbar is to send the scrollbar window a SBM_GETPOS message. You may also want to use the SBM_GETRANGE message to get the range of the scrollbar.
You can disable an edit control just like any other window or control -- use EnableWindow(HWND, BOOL). So, if hWindow is the handle of the edit control, do:
EnableWindow(hWindow,FALSE);
to disable it.

Thanks. I am using the winAPI actually, so you may also be a mind reader
Shh, don't tell anybody =]
