disabling Scroll mouse wheel

[lxh]

Hi All

I've set the 'cycle' property to current record - and this works well for the tab key. - BUT the wheel on my scroll mouse still moves the record to a new blank record. Is there any way to disable this effect?

Thanks
Lee

Searching the forum would have provided you with a lot of options to do what you want. The Microsoft solution has a lot of code and also a few warnings of potential problems so I suggest that you read and test your code very thoroughly.

For a simpler solution to turning off the mouse wheel I suggest that you check out the nomouse.zip sample I posted [it is near the bottom of the page] for it allows you to easily turn on or off the mouse scroll wheel and it does not mess my other subs or functions up.

You might benefit from my A Better Mouse Trap? sample for that is my preferred way to ensure that a user has saved a modified record before they can move to another record or close the form without disabling their mouse wheel.
