One of my databases keeps giving me an error that says "Sorry.. Cannot find
the MouseHook.dll file." Then it says to copy it from the Windows sytem files
into the mdb files. I searched my computer and no such file exists. How do I
fix this? Can I bring the file in from another computer?

Your database is probably using Mousehook.dll to control the
scrollwheel on your mouse. If you google mousehook.dll, I'm sure you
will turn up a site that let's you download it.

Funny - you're not the only one getting annoyed by unsolicited offers.

As said elsewhere you can probably find the file online. You can also
take the reverse approach and live without it. Some mouse drivers and
more recent versions of Access don't require mousewheel, so you can
simply comment out the relevant code.

Mousehook.dll is a file written by Stephen Lebans to fill the problem of
scrolling between records when you do not want to. If you don't need it,
or care, open any code window and go to Tools >>> References, and
uncheck it. If you want it, you can get it here:
