Increasing number of lines in a Text Box, without scrolling problems.

I have a Text Box in my application.As stated in the User Interface Reference Manual,once the number of lines in the Text Box crosses a particular extent,the scroll bars do not work.
Is there any workarounds for this problem?
I would like to have an Infinite (or a Finite but very large) text box Entry option.

Thanks in advance,

That limitation to the textbox was removed in CVI 6.0. We no longer limit the number of lines or scrolling capability in the text box. We mistakenly did not fix this in the documentation in CVI 6.0, but have fixed for the next release. If you are using CVI 6.0 though, that limitation is no longer there. If you are using a version older than 6.0, then there isn't really a workaround with the textbox without upgrading which you can do at http://www.ni.com/upgrade.
