There are two main points...

1. Using OnGetCanScroll still results in edit/insert being posted. It
was for this problem that I suggested this "fix" (back in September);

in the TIB_Dataset.MoveBy procedure
if Prepared then
begin
CurRow := RowNum;
// CheckBrowseMode; <-- Comment out this line!
Inc( JumpRecs, CurRow - RowNum );
end


2. Using OnGetCanScroll, or BeforeScroll etc does not prevent the
reordering that will occur when a user clicks on a grid title. Which
was why Christian found it necessary to put an abort in the grid mouse
up handler.


I would suggest that the requirement to turn off the auto-post
facilities of IBO is relatively common. So it would seem appropriate
to provide an easy mechanism to disable this feature.
