I did send the code to support. Preliminary response is that they can replicate it, and it does look like a genuine bug. R&D is chewing on it and will decide what to do.

Nice workaround Dave. The Life program (I am/was working/playing/diddling (see link above) on now has the "Mouse Wheel Exit" feature removed. {grin}

Hmm, workaround code + explanation in SDK kind of explains why the workaround actually "works" (I hate it when something 'works' but I don't know why)....
I guess EXIT FUNCTION in the subclass proc cancels the (PB) default forwarding.The WM_MOUSEWHEEL message is sent to the focus window when the mouse wheel is rotated. The DefWindowProc function propagates the message to the window's parent. There should be no internal forwarding of the message, since DefWindowProc propagates it up the parent chain until it finds a window that processes it.
I think it also tells me I want to do some testing, since I usually don't do squat with that message. But since I've never had a problem, I must be missing something here... or maybe I just haven't "wheeled" with a 9x-compiled application yet...
YIKES.. I'm writing my new app in 9x.... so it must be REALLY time to test.Michael Mattias
