Scrolling through credits on form? 1

[robmkimmons]

Hello!

For my application i have created an "About" form that has the version info. and so forth. I would like to have a text box (i assume) which scrolls through with the credits of those who have contributed towards the database. (having it scroll through info. in one text box helps keep the form size to a minimum).

Would the best way to approach this be to set the form's timer interval and put the code for the "On Timer" event? Or just create code that increments in a loop? Or what?

And if so, any suggestions for the code itself?? (as usual, i know generally how i want to go about doing it, but the syntax is what's killing me)

Much thanks!! ;-) ~Rob

If we expect the unexpected, does that make the unexpected... well, expected?
