Can you give us some more info, are you using the New 4.6 UI or OnGUI?

Also if you have some code can you post that, it'll make answering easier.

Thanks

O$$anonymous$$ you still haven't said if you're using OnGUI or 4.6 but I'll just show you the 4.6 way.

If you have a scrollRect then you can just check the verticalNormalizedPosition (or horizontalNormalizedPosition if using horizontal scroll bars). That value is always between 0 and 1 no matter how big the content is.

 public ScrollRect myScrollRect
 
 void Update(){
 Debug.Log("scroll position = "myScrollRect.verticalNormalizedPosition);
 }

Un tested code so there may be typos!

EDIT

Sorry @rick grendel I don't think I can help you then. Converted my answer to a comment. Perhaps you could say which version you use to help people know how to answer.
