I am using Windows 2000 and Access 2000 and I want to programmatically
disable the scroll wheel on the mouse when users are viewing a recordset in a
form

I want to limit record navigation to the standard navigation buttons and
prevent the user from using the scroll wheel to move through the recordset.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated

Hi,
set the cycle property of the form to current record only.
Furthermore check out this solution:

There are many more solutions besides this one.

Good luck

Setting the cycle to current record was one the first thing that I did, but
it does not stop the scroll wheel. I've looked at the site that you
suggested and I think that might do the trick.

Thanks for the tip...
