Help!

When my form is open, if the mouse scroller is moved it changes my current record to the next in the set. I had the same problem with the tab key but was able to fix it by setting the cycle property to Current Record. Is there a way to stop the form from moving to the next record when the mouse scroller is moved?
 
I wonder if that is in the mouse properties of the mouse that you are using. I have the same thing happen in my database with my mouse but the replicas I created on other computers, it does not happen.

If I take a peek in your Windows, to fix a problem, does that make me a "Peeping Tom"? Hmmmmmmmmmmv [pc1][shocked]
 
You need to install a DLL called MouseHook.dll in your windows system folder. Do a search on this file and see what comes up. This was discussed quite a long time ago. I use it in all my client's databases.
 
Would I have to install the .dll file on every users computer or just mine?
 
Thanks Edski that got me going in the right direction. The MouseHook.dll just needs to be in the same folder as the database. Thanks for your help!
