Hi,

I need to do text editing on a JTextField and JTextArea and somehow as the
text grows, the JTextField's / JTextArea's width increases. This has been
undesirable as the other components are forced to increase their width also.
I would like to have the text in JTextField/JTextArea to automatically
scrolls to visible area instead of forcing the width to increase. How can I
achieve this?
The JTextField and JTextArea are put on a panel with GridBagLayout and I've
set them to Fill Horizontal. The panel is in turn put on a JScrollPane. Has
this setting got to do with it?

--
Thanks for any help given

Lois
