(Solved)Horizontal Scroll bar not appearing for list controls?

[MattHiggs]

I am having an issue where the horizontal scroll bar is not appearing on my list controls.  And this doesn't just happen with my project.  Even running the GUICtrlCreateList script included with autoit Installation (clearly states that, while limited, there should be a horizontal scroll bar for list control), none is displayed.  Is this a known issue?  I have the following code for my project:  **Just found _GUICtrlListBox_SetHorizontalExtent.  My bad**
