Beacon is correct on all points!
Forms that require a user to scroll down to access all controls is considered to be the ultimate user-
unfriendly! Use a tabbed control and expand laterally.
As for the mousewheel, if you're running Access 2007, you already have a function that addresses this issue! You can lock the wheel from going to another record and still allow scrolling down thru records in Datasheet and Continuous View. See Help for details. You still cannot scroll down a too large form, though.
For all other versions, you'll need some outside help. A gentleman by the name of Stephen Lebans has a sample database that does this and it can be downloaded at:

You still cannot scroll down overly long forms. I've seen this question posed dozens of times with no successful solution ever being found.
My last question would be exactly how many controls do you have on this form that requires using such a long one?
