This HAS to be it. I just received this reply from a developer who fixed a similar problem in another application for me (and other users) about 2 years ago: (I have documented all of this in bug report # 0002480): "Do you have your wheel set to scroll a page at a time? If that's the case then the _only_ idea I've had was that maybe I originally wasn't handling the case properly when the system scroll lines setting (obtained by calling SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETWHEELSCROLLLINES,...)) returns -1. I have a vague memory that I didn't know about this behaviour originally and thought that SPI_GETWHEELSCROLLLINES would always return a whole number of lines to scroll. If it returns -1 you are meant to treat each scroll message as moving a whole page in either direction" -- Cheers!
