Locked textbox, no scrollbars unless click inside it ?!?

I have a locked textbox. I only see the scrollbard when I click in the box. Even when there is more data than will fit. Is there any way to get them to always appear so the user knows there is more information?

The TextBox Scrollbar only appears when the TextBox has the focus.

I normally size the height of the TextBox so that the users can see the top
half of the last line. If they want to read that line and the following text
if applicable, they have to set the focus onlto the TextBox.
