Dhoo. Sorry Mate
I don't explain things very well.
Pressing the down arrow once and releasing it, will cause the text to scroll down about 10pixels smoothly.
bassically if you tap the down arrow key the text will scroll down a set amount of pixels.
Hope that makes it a bit clearer

Thanks Guys
What i was hoping for was a Graphic/text scrolling menu
controlled by up/down arrows.
The selection line stays in the center of the screen and the text scrolls up and down.
I will also eventually have a screen shot of the game show up as it's title is highlighted.
Don't mean to be vague but it's ...

Scrolling Frontend Menu for MAME
I would like to use a scrolling menu controlled by the arrow keys up & Down to select the highlighted game title when I press crtl.
GAME 1
GAME 2
GAME 3
GAME 4
GAME 5
Press ctrl when GAME 3 is highlited and away she goes.
It's mainly just the text scrolling which is causing me a headache.

Bubble help over an area
Last question for a while.
Is it possible to have a help bubble come up over a certain area when the mouse pointer has been moved over it?
Either RMB or just move over the area.
Bit tough this one.

Anothre Newbie question about Error Messages
Is it hard to display a small error message when you trap one?
Just to show the user what happened and then of course return to the program.

Newbie question Difference between 2 numbers
How can I find the difference between to numbers?
I need to make sure there is no greater difference then 7 between two numbers.
Sometimes the first number will be less then the first. eg a=1 b=9.
Other times the reverse. eg a=9 b =1.
I don't want the result to be a negative one.
Sorry for the ...
