Mouse scroll wheel clears input form data
I have an input only form with combo boxes, text boxes, and so on. The form is built so it doesn't save any data until the user clicks the save button.
The problem that has popped up is if a user uses the mouse scroll wheel during the input process even when focus is in a text or memo box it clears the entered form data and they lose all the input to that point.
Is there a simple way to catch and stop this from happening? I have looked at posts to stop the mouse wheel from moving through recordsets but I don't know if this is the right code for what I need also.
I need input from your great minds on this one, thanks

have you tried setting the cycle property of the form to 'Current Record' ?

setting cycle property to 'Current Record' diddn't help but using 'Current Page' helped but is not the final answer.
Current Page will not help if you need to use contiguous forms. At least it did not work for me
maybe a mouse without a mouse wheel
