The primary reason why not is that it's *insanely* complicated to do.

And, um, requires buying extensions that also cost money, in addition
to time.

Oh, wait. Maybe *that*'s why we don't have scrollable screens. :-)

Jay,
   
  Have you ever looked at Howie's fpWeb or if he is still selling it his program called SILK?  Both seemed pretty easy to set this up.
   
  As a side note I plan on rewriting all my screen for my plant mfg and account software in these programs.  Seems like a workable solution.
   
  Just my opinoin though....
   
  Thanks
