Scroll Bar in Actionscript 2.0

Question

I had created a scroll bar function in Flash 6.0 (a few years
back) and want to re-use this code to create a scroll bar in a
flash movie that I am currenlty creating. I copied and pasted all
of the elements and code, but the text does not scroll when
exported in flash player 7 or 8. It only works in 6.0. When I
publish this, it does not give me any errors so I have no idea
where to look to see the problem. Also, the up and down arrows
scroll the text just fine, it is just the bar itself that has the
problem. Can someone please look over this code and let me know
where things are going wrong.

THANKS!

The text box is scrollable. Since this does work in flash player 6.0 and earlier, there is something with how the code is written. I am pretty sure the problem is in this section of the actionscript:

onClipEvent (mouseMove){
if (scrolling == "scrollbar") {
daTextBox.scroll = Math.round((scrollbar._y)/lineHeight + 1);
}
updateAfterEvent();

Any other ideas?????

Thanks.
