Extracting sections of a textFild

Extracting sections of a textFild

I have a problem with the textFild object.

I have a large text which i need to display in colums i.e. I have to break
up the text and show it in several differnet textfields (colums). I found
out how many lines I can show in one colume and from here found out how many
colums i need. I then make the neccessary colums, place my entire text in
each one and use the scroll method to move the text up so it all looks like
"running" colums.

This just gets really processor-heavy and I was wondering if anyone has
found a way to place a formatted pice of text in a text field, and then
extract a certain number of lines from it??

This is actually a problem I have had before, but I really need to solve it
this time!
