I don't think it's possible. What I've done in my solutions is to set the borders to none so that you cannot see the scroll bar. I then create a container calc that will display an up and down arrow if the portal exceeds whatever record rows I've set. I then place the container fields approximately where the portal scroll arrows are.

Using your suggestion, I can hide the scroll bars, but can't think of how to write the script for the container fields. I assume that an arrow graphic is placed in each of two containers; one for up and the other for down, but I can't figure out the script. A hint?

Thanks

no need to script it. By placing the container fields approximately where the scroll bars would be, and also layering it behind the portal, when you click on the the arrows of the container, you are actually hitting the scroll arrow.

Similar approach. But if you still wanted to use the scroll bars, place a contianer field over the scrollbar portion of the portal. When the portal does not extend beyond it's rows the contianer is filled with the background color covering the scrollbar and empty when the scrollbars are needed.
