Please replace the ??? with your data!

Your URL: http://www.cafe-wanders.de/geschenke-versand/
The browser used: FF/IE
cforms version: 8.5.2
Your Wordpress version: 2.5.1

I would like to include a text box with scroll bars, which includes a license agreement or other notes. The box is not supposed to be changed and just a convinient way or the customer to read the small print.

I couldn't figure out how to do this with the available fieldsets. Right now I have a text link to the agreement and a checkbox that states that the customer read it. To have it on the same page / inside the form would be better though.

Any thoughts?

Easy.

Add a multiple line text field, and set it to 'read-only'.
Configure it and insert your 'license agreement or other notes' as the default text.
Finally use CSS to set the properly set width & height and set overflow:auto;

I need to accomplish the same thing, but I need more specific instructions on how and where exactly to add the CSS code. Does it go in styles.css? Or somewhere on the form page in WP? I dont understand where and how that field in the form will call the CSS attributes and where the CSS needs to go. An example would be terrific, otherwise I think Im at an impasse. Im not using any default CForms CSS (disabled). I am defaulting to my Wordpress theme's so it does not break style elements.
