Disable mouse

[IMACoolClassic]

I need to disable the mouse from functioning for a short period of time so that when a user creates an exit event they can't mouse to a different record on a continous form. I have a pop up form that gets populated based on current record. When a user uses the mouse to exit the data point they go to a different record which then the pop is based on that record. Thanks!

add a module, put this in it:

public Declare Function ShowCursor Lib "user32" (ByVal lShow As Long) As Long

Turn it on /off

'mouse on
ShowCursor 1

'off
ShowCursor 0

Why not make the popup form modal, then they can't invoke anything else in the database until it closes?
