Sometimes the content forces a scrollbar on the right frame and my boss
would like to know if there is anyway to have both frames scroll "in sync".

ok. Here is your code (written very quickly but it SHOULD work....:
Frames Page Sample (Just note the name of the contents page = "contents" :

<html>
<head>
<title>My Frames Page</title>
</head>
<frameset cols="150,*">
  <frame name="contents" target="main" src="Content">
  <frame name="main" src="main">
  <noframes>
  <body>
  <p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.</p>
  </body>
  </noframes>
</frameset>
</html>


Main Page (the one that the user uses to scroll):

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=javascript>
<!--
function window_onscroll() {
window.parent.frames("contents").scrollTo(0,document.body.scrollTop)
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

<BODY LANGUAGE=javascript onscroll="return window_onscroll()">
<p>bla bla</p>
</BODY>

HTH or at lease put you on the right track...
