Is there a way to get a richtext column on a dw object to display a horizontal scroll bar?  

I have a datawindow with only one visible field with a RichText edit style.  When the user is typing in a long line, the display scroll right, but doesn't scroll back left when the word-wrap automagically occurs.  End result, the customer can't see the whole text entered.

TIA,
~~~Tracy

I cannot see any option that would be helpful. You can have Vertical Scroll Bar and Autosize height. But I'm guessing that your DW control is quite wide as you suggest the text scrolls right but not back to the beginning of the control area when wrapping. I ran a quick test and the functionality was quite poor with numerous issues when entering text beyond a line.
