Hello everybody,

I am not sure that many people have been playing with new Access2007.
Probably someone has seen and fixed the same problem.
The problem is simple:
Mouse wheel doesn't scroll records in the Form view.
In all other cases mouse wheel seems to work normally.

Any help will be hugely appreciated.
Andrew

I believe that's considered a feature of the new version, Andrew. Most
people hated the old behaviour - we get *lots* of questions asking how to
turn it off. So they changed it in Access 2007. I believe you can still
scroll through records using the mouse wheel if you position the pointer
over the scroll bar. (I'm using a notebook with a touchpad, no wheel, so I
can't test that myself).

It is strange, Actually scroll bars are dislplayed only if content of
the form doesn't fit into window.
Most of my forms normally don't have scroll bars.
The only way to scroll records in the form is clicking small buttons in
the bottom of the form.
very inconvinient.

Best regards,
Andrew

Hurray! The finally fixed the problem of accidentally scrolling records, so
we don't have to remember to turn it off all the time.

If you want to scroll like it used to, use the MouseWheel event to move
record.

There are keyboard shortcuts too. Try Page Up and Page Down to go to the
previous record or next record, and Ctrl+Home and Ctrl+End (or Ctrl+Up Arrow
and Ctrl+Down Arrow) to go to the first or last record.
