    Access 2007 Buffer issue makes scrolling objects difficult.

    Has anyone noticed that scrolling through objects i.e. forms, reports, tables, etc with Access 2007 is not as easy as Access 2003? I have a database with a large number of objects. When scrolling through with the down arrow or page down, it seems that items get caught in the buffer making scrolling through large amounts of objects cumbersome. After taking my finger off the key, the cursor continues to move. If I push down and let go quickly, it seems to work ok with the down arrow, but not the page down. I would like to be able to hold either key down until I find the object I want. Is there some type of fix for this?

        I believe Megalog was referring to the service pack for Access 2007 specifically. You can see your version on the Acess Options -> Resources tab, at the bottom.

          Megalog, ChipR,

          I checked the Access Resources and got the following:

          Microsoft Office Access 2007 (some #) SP2 (some similar #)

            Hrmm.. sorry I've no idea then.
            I saw a lot of complaints about this kind of behavior after SP1, and assumed they were fixed with SP2.

              My IT guys just found a work around (there is no fix as of yet for this problem possibly will be in Access 2007 SP3 version). Right-click on All Access Objects and choose the list option.

                Hrm that's probably why I dont see it.. I always categorize all my objects by 'Object Type', and view by 'List'.

                  Meganjen,

                  I tried your solution and it works perfectly. Thank you! ChipR and Megalog, try this one.
