Listbox Horizontal Scrollbar Problem

I have a simple application that has a listbox for displaying text in it.
The functionality of it is to color particular parts of the text that is
displayed from a file. I have used similar coding from
http://www.dotnet247.com/247referenc.../12/60727.aspx as a reference for
coloring the text.

The problem I am having is that when the text of the listbox is longer than
the size of the listbox, the horizontal scrollbar will not show up. I have
tried code from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...xtenttopic.asp
trying to get the horiztonal scrollbar visible but I have not been able to
get this to work.

Is there any other way that I can make the horizontal scrollbar visible?

Thanks for the help.
