GDI+ Rendering Text and scrolling

Does anybody have any experience with samples to point me to.

I am developing a little list, which renders the text using GDI which all
works ok, however I then need to be able to make the form/user control scroll
the text that is off the form client area into view, which I am not sure how
to do.

I cant use Autoscroll because these are not controls it is Text, am I better
off just using say the data grid control ? and let it take care of it all ?
