Mouse Wheel

[jonnymenthol]

Hello,

If this has been asked before, I apologise, but could anyone tell me if there is a way to stop the mouse wheel scrolling through all of the records in my DB.

Ideally, I'd like to have it scroll down the combo box, but if not, if I could just disable the wheel would be a help.

Thank you in advance.

Jonny.

jonny,

i'm really hazy abt. what you are asking...

but i think you might want to try setting your form property: Cycle
to 'Current Record'...

hth,

Hi Al,

Thanks for your response.

Basically, what I have is a database that log's incidents (Date, Logged By, Incident Details, Action etc etc)

I may add 50 a day, so I have a form for logging each record, then a new button, which takes me to a blank record ready to log the next.

However, if I'm on the current incident, in one of the combo boxes, and I scroll the mouse wheel, it either scrolls back through all the records I have ever done, or scrolls forward and takes me to another blank form.

I hope this makes more sense.

Thanks.

jonny,

i don't use a 'wheeled' mouse, they're supposed to have tiny little feet, right?

but think you should try setting the form's cycle property to Current Record as i suggested...see if it makes any differnce.

if that doesn't work try:
