I have a main form with a subform and have set AllowAdditions and AllowEdits on the main form to No. If the height of the subform is greater than 3.1" while AllowAdditions and AllowEdits is set to No on the main form, the mouse wheel will not work in the subform and scroll through the records.

Is there any way around this?

Have you tried opening the subform on its own "standalone" and making it bigger?

When the subform is opened standalone, it's a continuous form so there is no limit to it's length and it scrolls with no issues.

The solution was to set the autoheight property of the detail section to YES.

Well, setting the detail section autoheight to yes helped but did not solve the issue completely. If there are many records in the subform the mouse wheel works fine but if there are only a few records and the last record is partially visible in the subform, the mouse wheel won't scroll down to see all of the last record. Help please!
