SYMPTOMS

ScrollBars do not appear in a Multiline TextBox. Note that this occurs only in the emulation environment and not on the remote device.

MORE INFORMATION

This behavior occurs only in the Windows CE Platform SDK version 2.0 emulation environment.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Start a new Windows CE (HPC) Project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created by default.
  2. Add three TextBoxes to Form1.
  3. Make the following property settings:
       +-----------------------------------------+
       | Control       | Property   | Setting    | 
       +-----------------------------------------+
       | All TextBoxes | MultiLine  | True       | 
       +-----------------------------------------+
       | Text1         | ScrollBars | Horizontal | 
       +-----------------------------------------+
       | Text2         | ScrollBars | Vertical   | 
       +-----------------------------------------+
       | Text3         | ScrollBars | Both       | 
       +-----------------------------------------+
    					
  4. Press the F5 key to run the program, and note that the ScrollBars do not appear when the application executes.
