Does anyone know how to link a scrollpane to a text box with dynamically loaded
text? Problem seems to be:

* Have to set linkage property for item that displays in scrollpane
* Can only set linkage for library item, not specific instance --???
* No way to set text inside of a MovieClip that's in the library and not on
state -- ???

Any ideas?

First of all, you must use a movieclip, containing the textfield. When you set
the content, the scrollpane (not you) creates the instance. I don't remember
the path off the top of my head, but to find it do Debug > List Objects, then
CTRL+F to search for the name of your mc. Then, knowing what the path is, you
can change the content, and update the scrollpane as necessary.
