Avoid Touchpad Scroll

[José Francisco Ruiz Martínez]

I have found a perfect Stephen Lebans code and dll to stop the mouse scroll
function on forms (http://www.lebans.com/mousewheelonoff.htm), but it don't
work with the touchpad scroll.

Any solution there?

Have you tried to set the following properties of the form?

DefaultView = Single Form
AllowEdits = Yes
AllowDeletions = No
AllowAdditions = No
RecordSelectors = No
NavigationButtons = No
DividingLines = No
Cycle = CurrentRecord

These settings allow the user the edit the current record period! You will
have to come up with another way to add new and delete existing records.

Typically I do this with what I call a "Lookup" form for the data edit form.
The Lookup form will typically have a Text box for search params, a List box
with all of the records that match the criteria entered in the Text box, and
a Few buttons, Search, Add New, Delete, and Edit. Using this methodology I
have given users an easy way to find the data they want to work with, and
avoided having to use any of the anti-mouse scroll inhibitor thingies.
