I'm working with NX 10 and unlike previous versions to zoom the piece with the mouse works backwards.
Does anyone know if I can change it?

Thanks.

The E-Tips thread referenced by jerry1423 is obsolete if you're talking about NX 10.0. And YES we did switch the default Zoom direction of the mouse wheel with the release of NX 10.0, basically because we had it wrong all these years. It turns out that the rest of the world, including products like Google Earth, PhotoShop, Solid Edge, Teamcenter Vis, etc, was the opposite of NX and while it is true that we could have probably changed Solid Edge and Teamcenter Vis to match NX, there was NO chance whatsoever that we could ever change Google Earth or something like PhotoShop so we decided instead to simply change NX. Besides it supports the idea that it's the observer and NOT the model that is moving when you Zoom in and out.

That being said, if you really don't like the new NX 10.0 default wheel mouse behavior, it can be switched back in Customer Defaults. BTW, this topic is covered in the NX 10.0 'What's New' guide.
