My own listbox

Hello,
In windows there is a control called "Listbox". It looks like grid
with single column without header. Several rows and maybe a scrollbar.
Example is here:
http://www.java2s.com/Tutorial/VBImages/ListBoxSelectionEventAddValue.PNG

I need to create control that works similar way. It will not be
actually a listbox, but it will work the same way: few objects - rows
and an optional scrollbar. As a "good" cocoa programmer I derived
NSControl and implemented -drawRect to draw my own rows. Then I put
this control to the window in Interface Builder and embed it into
NSScrollView. Here the problem starts. How can I tell NSScrollView
what size does my control have? I tried to implement -bounds and
-frame methods, but scroller became crazy. I tried this code:

- (NSRect) frame
{
    NSRect rc = [super frame];
    rc.size.height = number_of_rows * height_of_row;
    return rc;
}

- (NSRect) bounds {.. the same..}

NSScrollView shows scrollbar with correct proportions, but then I drag
it - it scrolls my control to the wrong direction. I tried to play
with -isFlipped - no success.

So I need some similar source to take a look for what I missed. Does
anybody have one?
Thank you.
