HScroll of ScrollableControl - Usage?

[Gates72]

Hi Gurus,

I am attempting to derive a User Control from the
ScrollableControl class. I need to have control over
which scrollbars get displayed.

According to MSDN:
"To manually override which scroll bars are visible, set
the VScroll and HScroll properties. If either property is
set to false, the corresponding scroll bar will not be
visible, even if the AutoScroll property is set to true."

However, I am either using it incorrectly, or finding
that this is not true. I set the HScroll property of the
control to false

this.HScroll = false;
but still get the scrollbar. Through debugging, I've
found that the HScroll property of the control is, in
fact, false.

Short of programming scrollbars "old school" style, does
anybody know of an alternative?

Thanks,
G72

Try to use ShowScrollBar.
