Was your borderwidth = 3?

Subject: Re: calculating max vscroll

Using (The formattedheight of field "myField1") - (the height of  
field "myfield1") doesn't seem to work quite right.  When I calculate  
that value for the field I get 67 (formattedHeight is 392 and height  
is 325).  When I scroll it to the max and check the vscroll property,  
it turns out to be 61 or 62, depending on whether I drag the  
scrollbar or use my mouse wheel, respectively (and that's another  
question:  why would it scroll more when using the mouse wheel?   
Seems odd to me).

Anyway, the scrolling problem has gone away thanks to Jonathan.  I  
started looking at the borders of the two fields and that was the  
difference. Originally neither one had a border.  At one point I  
added a border to the main field, but didn't to the other. That was  
causing the weird scrolling behavior.  Once I added a border to the  
other field it worked fine.  :-)

Thanks everyone.
