I am having problems getting the posted example to work with the 2003 flavor
of access. Does anyone have any experience getting this to work in the
latest version of access?

Yes that is the one - I think this example must work fine in earlier versions
but may not in Access 2003 - Has anyone used this in 2003?

What exactly happens? Do you get an error? If so, what's the error?

I have heard no reports others having problems with it in Access 2003.

Opening the sample database in Access 2003 I get the following message:

You can’t make changes to the database objects in the database
‘MouseWheelOnOffVer9’.

This database was created in an earlier version of Microsoft Office Access.
To convert this database to the current version of Microsoft Access, close
the database, point to Database Utilities on the Tools menu, and then click
Convert Database

If I continue with out converting the database:

The expression On Load you entered as the event property setting produced
the following error: User-defined type not defined.
*The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a
user-defined function, or [Event Procedure].
*There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro.

If I convert the example database using the Access Utility I get the same
error:

The expression On Load you entered as the event property setting produced
the following error: User-defined type not defined.
*The expression may not result in the name of a macro, the name of a
user-defined function, or [Event Procedure].
*There may have been an error evaluating the function, event, or macro.

Maybe there is a simple fix - any ideas?
Thanks,
Steck

You're using a very old version, which used an ActiveX control. Stephen has
completely redone the databases. Download a newer version from the link
below.

Steck simply say yes to the dialg and convert the MDB to your current
version. The solution does work in A2003 and for you to imply otherwise is
incorrect.

Thanks Douglas Steele and Stephen Lebans - That was exactly the problem! I
wasn't trying to ruffle any feathers - just needed some help trouble shooting
this thing. I am thankful that there are some creative people like Stephen
out there who are willing to share their ideas with others.
