Because one of our departments has dicovered the mouse wheel will advance records on a form, I've been asked to do some research on the subject.

I'm trying to trigger an event much like an "on change" or after update events using the mouse wheel.

In my testing I put a message box on the "on mouse wheel" event and it appears the event is triggering prior to advancing to the next record. The reason I say this is because when I scroll the wheel one click, the message box pops up with the current id. When I click ok it then advances the record.

Question #1: Has anyone else done any work in this area and are my observations correct?

Question #2: Does anyone know of a way to capture the informtion 'after' the records has been advanced?

Hope this makes sense and thanks for any input.
