scrolling through report

ok, i would personally expect this to be a given, but for some reason
it doesnt seem to be. i have a report that is always 7 pages long and
i want the user to be able to view it and/or print it. not a problem,
one button to print preview, one to just print. the problem is just
that in the print preview, the user wants to be able to use the scroll
wheel on the mouse to scroll through the pages. i cant seem to figure
out how to enable that. right now you must either use the nav buttons
at the bottom or the arrow keys on the keyboard.

i know its not a huge problem, more of a noted annoyance, but any help
would be appreciated!

thanks

it seems that the mousehook.dll is to disable the mouse wheel in
forms, not enable it in reports. is there a chance it can be used in
the print preview view of reports to enable scrolling?

thanks!

I would have to add a few lines of code to support the desired
interface. I'll see about adding it to the next release.

Thanks!

any idea when you plan on making such a release? if not soon, i was
thinking about other ways to do this, even possibly making it export
to word as reading view or something along those lines. thanks again!

Honestly I have no idea on the release date. I am starting vacation
tomorrow or Monday. Usually the programming bug bites me at some point
during my vacation but I'm unwilling to commit to a date.

Greg,
IF the page is zoomed out (the whole page is on screen) THEN PgDn works to go to the next page.
WHEN the page is zoomed in, THEN the arrow-keys work to navigate.
So press 'Z' to zoom in or out and do your thing ;-)

No need to use the mouse then ...

Hope this helps

Thanks for the suggestion, but the reason for using the mouse was
