Disable edition in a TextBox with Scrolling enabled

i would like to know if it is possible to disable the edition of a textbox without losing the scrolling capability. If the Enabled property is set to false then the scroll bars are also disabled

Is easy to do that you just must to

// set readonly property true
ReadOnly = True;

// set cursor property to default
Cursor = Default;

// change focus when it has on enter event
private void textBox4_Enter(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    label8.Focus();
}

Try:

textBox1.ReadOnly = true;

Disable text selection:

 ContextMenu blankContextMenu = new ContextMenu();
 textBox1.ContextMenu = blankContextMenu;

For disabling Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V, capture them on KeyDown event

You may want to try the readonly property.
