How can I detect scrolling in a field?

[MisterX]

Hi Graham

It is
on scrollbardrag w

set the scroll of fld 2 to w
..

BUT be carefull if you do the reverse in field 2... 

if the scroll of fld 2 is not w then... 

that's the safe way or you'll cause another scrollbardrag back and forth
forever (used to work that way and haven't tried lately ;))... 

Just remember people use scroll-wheels a lot now so any field should work
for scrolling synchronized fields... 

cheers
Xavier
