Hi All,
I have a windows app with a panel with 5 rich text box. the panel has autoscroll on so the scroll bar shows up.
When i click on the first richtextbox and drag the scroll bar to the bottom ,it will auto scroll back to top to focus where the cursor. is there a way to turn off focus to where the current cursor is ?

 
what if you just scroll the RTF and not put focus in it first. Will that work. Also, what is your ultimate goal for doing this?
 
I did a quick test and added a handful of blank lines to my RTF. When I scrolled to the bottom it stayed there. Can you try that method?
 
stupid me,

acutally what was causing it was a timer i created on startup to simulate a clock and it would cause the screen to refresh it's focus. To fix the problem i used a thread instead of a timer!
