resetting the text scroll in a text box

[FlappyCat]

Hi all

I have a movie which reads in different text files to a dynamic text area when different buttons are clicked. It works well except if you have scrolled down one body of text, then when you load the next text file, it starts from the scrolled position of the previous text. Is there a simple way (has to be simple 'cos I am) of resetting the scroll location?

Thanks for looking (and any help!).

How are you accomplishing the srolling? The sroll bar component or the srollpane (or some other way?)

Wow JT that almost looked like you knew what you were doing!

Thanks Pixl8r

I'm using this:
if (down == "1") {
this.textField.scroll += 1;
}
- hope that answers!

textField.scroll = 0;

When loading a new text file ?????????

That pointed me in the right direction - thanks.

Had to reference the text area from the _root.
