Disable "smooth scrolling"

[Philipp Schumann]

Hi

on XP systems, per default setting, combo boxes slide down smoothly rather
than just popping up instant(aneous)ly. This is seriously disturbing an
application I'm developing and I'm looking for a way to disable this
"locally", that is, only in my own application (whether per application or
per control doesn't matter). I can't afford to fuss with the user's XP
settings and preferences...

Anyone know of a good way to accomplish this?
Many thanks,
Philipp Schumann

Try around
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sysinfo/base/system_information.asp
but I'm not sure you can do that on a per process basis (at least without
awfull tricks).

What effect does it cause in your application ? I would really try to solve
the original problem...
