Records in Subforms

[Wookawsh]

I have a form that contains 1 main form about 6 subforms within it. The main
form exists in a one-to-many with the sub-form. The issue is that the
subforms contain a bar at the bottom that can advance to the next record.
When entering data, sometimes the subform will advance to the next record (if
I hit the scroll wheel at the wrong time), while the main form is still on
the previous record. This can lead me to entering data into the wrong record.

Is there a way to eliminate the record selector bar from the subforms? Ive
tried selecting "No" in the Record Select in the Properites menu.

My coding experience is virtually nill (i.e. I can write xHTML)

Hope my question is clear.

Thanks!

i think the scroll wheel will move the focus regardless (i don't have a
scroll wheel mouse, so i can't test it out). one solution may be to disable
to scroll wheel while in Access; to do that, see guru Stephen Lebans'
