        this.VerticalScrollBar.VisibleChanged += new EventHandler(VerticalScrollBar_VisibleChanged);
    }
    public bool VerticalScrollbarVisible {
        get { return VerticalScrollBar.Visible; }
    }
    private void VerticalScrollBar_VisibleChanged(object sender, EventArgs e) {
        EventHandler handler = ScrollbarVisibleChanged;
        if (handler != null) handler(this, e);
    } 
}
