1. Open FSIW dialog 2. Type in a substring that matches a whole bunch (i.e., more than there are lines on the dialog) of symbols 3. Unconsciously scroll mousewheel to move down the list -- note that it does nothing 4. Click on top entry of list to give the list focus, then *immediately* scroll mousewheel down again until the selected item is off the top of the list 6. Wait a fraction of a second (the FSIW delay period, I suspect)
Expected result: you see where you got.
What happens: After a short delay, the list box zips back to the item you selected.
i had not noticed you need focus to use the mouse wheel, i am so used to just filtering the list down as much as possible, and occasionally scrolling with the keyboard

that spontaneous scroll only happens the first time, which probably means something. waiting for the dialog to update its self makes no difference, so that is not a factor.
I just noticed the spontaneous scroll occurring in the Windows 2000 environment variables editor list control. So I guess this is simply the way the control behaves.
