Odd mouse wheel glitch in tabular forms?

44 New Member
Hi all;
I'm a bit curious about a little glitch I'm having... I'm not ready to disable the mouse wheel yet because I'm hoping for a simple fix! On a tabualr form, if you roll the mouse wheel down, the top record disappears. This happens even if the number of records visible donesn't even fill the total space the form is allocated. This normally wouldn't be a problem, but rolling the mousewheel up again doesn't bring the record back! You have to use the record selector buttons for that. This doesn't bother me at all, but the DB is for a fairly big bank and I wouldn't want to hand it over with this glitch unresolved. Any ideas?

Thanks!

That's an odd one Whizzo :S

I don't think I know anything that would help you, but I have a suggestion for you to find out :
  1. Does this happen on only one version of Access? If so which one?
  2. Does this happen on other PCs than your main one?
I'm sorry I can offer so little, but it may help to know these things. It may be useful for another expert to know. Good luck anyway.

I've seen this reported a number of times but, sad to say, I've never seen a solution that works other than disabling the mouse wheel!

Would be interesting to see if anyone here has one.

Gday everyone, I'm dearly hoping Stephen Lebans is going to update his masterpeice to stop the mouse wheel scrolling to work on subforms *he has indicated this to me but of course beggers can't be choosers here so I have no idea when this would be done*. I'm just wondering if anyone has gotten around the problem some other way? --Original Thread---

I have quite a few of continuous form and subform where I do allow scroll bars. I run into problems with the mouse wheel whenever the data on the form does not take up the whole page. In this instance, whenever a user uses the mouse wheel to scroll down, the first record disappears off the screen and they can't get it back unless they click on the Refresh button or Page Up. The mouse wheel never scroll back up to the first record. ...

Hello. My 80+ year old father has recently decided to get his first computer. Due to his age (and I suspect lack of playing pong as a child like I did) he lacks the manual dexterity to use a mouse well. He is frequently missing the left mouse button and hitting the right, or less often the middle (wheel) buttons. While he is very slowly getting better with practice, the frustration level is high for him as a result of this (he gets very...

Hi All, This question has been asked before but I need to know not only how to disable the mouse wheel on Access 97 forms for scrolling through records, but how to be able to use the mouse wheel to perform its standard function of scrolling the screen up and down. The reason I'm asking is I have several large forms that continue well past the bottom of the screen and the first thing that most people do is use the scroll wheel if they...

If I have a number of random applications open, move the mouse cursor to a given position and do a click, the application gets the focus. That is what this simple code should illustrate: Dim pt As Point Dim wnd As IntPtr Const WM_LBUTTONUP = &H202 '//LButton up Const WM_LBUTTONDOWN = &H201 '//LButton down

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
