v9.25.42 — Stable ListBox baseline (final pre-label-grid migration)

Last release on the legacy MSForms ListBox report engine. This version is the verified, crash-free baseline from which the upcoming v10.0.0 label-grid migration branches off.

Highlights

• Scroll reliability: the long-standing IntegralHeight partial-row bug (clipped last row + dead scroll range when a filter returned exactly viewport rows) is now fixed by snapping list height to whole rows before freezing.
• Mouse-wheel coverage: wheel scrolling works over Label/Button/Static controls, not just the list body, and is enabled on both frmReport and frmProgress.
• Localization hardening: FR/PT reset keys render diacritics correctly; CJK page separators aligned with page_format keys; status text localized through a single source of truth.
• Robustness: silent guard when the result collection is empty (no crash on premature report open); product name unified via APP_TITLE across all forms and error handlers.

Changes since v9.25.32

Added

• Mouse-wheel scroll on frmProgress and frmReport (EnableMouseScroll / DisableMouseScroll).
• Status localization via RP_LocalizedStatusBase.

Changed

• APP_TITLE constant integrated across all forms and error handlers (product name never translated).
• Skipped status shortened: Skipped (exists) - X/Y pages → Skipped - X/Y; CJK forms use middle-dot separator to match page_format keys.

Fixed

• AutoFitListBoxHeight: IntegralHeight snap fix eliminates the partial-row scroll bug.
• AutoFitListBoxHeight: ordering fix — IntegralHeight=False set before assigning Height to prevent scrollbar hiding on list growth.
• MouseScroll: ProcessMouseData now accepts Static/Button/Edit class names, so the wheel works when hovering over labels/buttons.
• FR/PT diacritics in reset.* keys (via U() helper for non-ASCII).
• Silent guard when the result collection is Nothing in frmReport.

Compatibility

• Autodesk Inventor 2026 / 2027, VBA 7.1, MSForms 2.0.
• 49 unit tests passing; SBOM regenerated (CycloneDX 1.5, CISA 2026 minimum elements).

What comes next

v10.0.0 replaces the ListBox with a programmatically generated label grid (dynamic GDI-measured columns, thin arrow-less scrollbar, native wheel subclassing), removing modListBoxFit, MouseScroll, and MouseOverControl (~3,000 LOC). This tag is the rollback point for that work.
