Need help adding scroll bar to edit box

I'm making an MFC dialog-based application in Visual C++ 2005. I added a scroll bar to an edit box. How do I program the scroll bar to make it work?

The windows styles wS_VSCROLL and WS_HSCROLL control if there is a scroll bar present or not. Normally you just setup these styles as part of the resource dialog template.

With MFC you use the "CWnd::ShowScrollBar" method to turn the scroll bar on/off.

When scrollbars are turned on, then they should work automatically for edit controls. You don't need to do anything.
