That's not supported. You can choose another theme to make the scrollbars
appear in a different style.

I don't know what you mean by style. But here is a piece of code for setting
and changing the properties of the scrollbar. Moreover, you can have another
control (say a label control) that moves or reacts to the relative position
of the scrollbar.



Private Sub ScrollBar_Reaction(......)

ScrollBar1.Size = New Size(25, Me.ClientSize.Height)

ScrollBar1.Location = New Point(Me.ClientSize.Width - 25, 0)

Label1.Location=New Point(0, (Me.ClientSize.Height -
Label1.Height)*ScrollBar1.Value / 100)

End Sub
