the ScrollBars property will control whether scroll bars are displayed.
another property, WordWrap, will determine whether there is a vertical or
horizontal scrollbar. to get both to come on at the same time you need to
change the EnterKeyBehavior property to True and the WordWrap property to
False. I think thats what you are trying to acheive, but maybe not.

Either way, the scroll bar(s) will appear automatically when the entered
text has gone beyond the predefined size of the textbox.

Hi, I have about the same problem than you...
I'm writing a Macro, and i have a TextBox that display a long text.
To get only a Vertical scrollbar, set the scrollbars property to "2 - fmScrollBarsVertical"
And to make your scrollbar appear directly, just set the focus on the control when you load the page or whenever you need it, that will make the scrollbar appear, but it appears DOWN... and that's my problem.
The scrollbar property of the textbox doesn't seem to have a percentage property, and i don't know if it's possible to keep it up once you have a text entered...
If you or anyone else would have the solution, that would help 🙂
