    scrollbar

    you should post this question in the windows section.. but anyway here goes... if you are using the MFC...

    //assumy CScrollBar myScrollbar exists

    CString strPos;

    strPos.Format("%d", myScrollbar.GetScrollPos( ));

    SetDlgItemText( IDC_EDIT1, strPos );


    usually you will want to trap the message when the user scrolls
    horizontally and plug this code in that message handler function...

    well hmm

    according to your topic: "Please help visual c++ edit control boxes"

    I'm sure Visuall c++ does not need any help editing control boxes. It can do it itself, with help from yourself. This is a fairly odd question. Did you mean to ask for help for yourself on editing control boxes?

    I think he meant two thoughts but forgot the comma or was clarifying why he needed help, such as:

    Help me, Visual C++ edit control boxes




    P.S. Why do you even care?
