Post your code so we have some idea of what you are doing, and a better idea of what you want to do.  Attach your VI, do not attach a picture.

As Bob told you, posting actual VI code instead of just some (very concise) text description is far superior for receiving any reaction.

But if you want to use SetScrollPos() Windows API function to change the setting of the LabVIEW front panel scrollbar you are most likely out of luck. The LabVIEW scrollbar is not a standard Windows scrollbar UI widget element but entirely handled by LabVIEW itself. SetScrollBar() should AFAIK not have any effect for a LabVIEW window, since as far as Windows is concerned, LabVIEW windows do not have a scrollbar at all.

And if you want to use this function to set the scrollbar position of a LabVIEW control (e.g. stringbox) I know for 100% sure that you can not do that, since LabVIEW controls are definitely not Windows UI widgets. They are completely handled, rendered and controlled by LabVIEW itself.

Thanks, Rolf -- I had not a clue what the Poster was asking, and hoped seeing some code would shed some light.

Agreed, the description isn't too great in whether it is a front panel or front panel object, but this should provide a method if it is just the front panel:
