Automatically scrolling text

[spidermo]

I am looking to make text scroll from side to side. I would know how to do this if I were using a JPanel, but not with something like a JTextField. Any ideas?

Can you keep rotating the contents of the string displayed?

string display = "Hello!   "; 
while(marquee running) // code to rotate 
 display = display.substr(1) + display.substr(0,1);

The code would cause it to change in this order, then continue to repeat.

"Hello!   "
"ello!   H"
"llo!   He"
"lo!   Hel"
"o!   Hell"
"!   Hello"
"   Hello!"
"  Hello! "
" Hello!  "
