Using VBA code in a form to turn off mouse-wheel

It seems nobody has an easy work-around for the mouse-wheel problem. I went to MS page for their programmed solution. Since I don't know anything about ActiveX or dll programming, I opted for their VBA code embedded in my form. I cut and pasted everything per their instructions, and it seems to work.

The problems are
(1) What a lot of work. I have to modify the load/unload VBA code in any form that has data entry to disable the mouse-wheel.

(2) They have a caveat about "Access might stop responding" ... I haven't given the code yet to my user.

Has anyone tried this and know about the side effects?

Thanks -- RAF
