Allow scrolling in a disabled control

[gsussman]

When a control is disabled, especially a large table or string control, it would be nice if the scroll bar would remain active in order to view the contents of the control, without the ability to actually change it.

I am not asking that the default behavior be changed, however a right click property/property node "scroll when disabled" would certainly have some value.

I have done the same thing with XControls as Altenbach has mentioned.

Create a Key Down? event for the string control and discard all keys. Make sure the string control is enabled, so the user can scroll and highlight the text but won't be able to modify the content.

This is not a full proof implementation because Ctrl+V and Ctrl+X on the strings can still modify it.
