I am trying to add a lot of text within a word document from another text
file and would like to enclose the added text within a scrollable region.

I know that I can probably use a listbox via VBA. However, I would like to
NOT use macros in the document.

Any ideas?

Hi ?B?QUxfTE9OR08=?=,

file and would like to enclose the added text within a scrollable region.

What do you mean by "a scrollable region"? And which version of Word are we
talking about?

If your version has the "Control toolbox" toolbar, how about a Text box
control? Note that this will activate macro security, even if you don't write
any macro code. But if I understand you correctly this is the closest you're
going to get unless you choose to use Insert/Object to embed the file
(possibly as another Word document). In that case the user would have to
double-click in order to do any scrolling.
