Mousewheel wont function

[John T Ingato]

Does anybody know why the wheel on my mouse does not scroll the pages in the
VB editor. It works in every other program I have including Excel.

I am lost without it.

You need to load the drivers, if its a microsoft mouse they are available
on the web at

If you don't have a microsoft mouse, use FreeWheel.

Its an old little program that works great! I use it with my Logitech mouse
and drivers.

Hi John,
You can reduce the scope to the Visual Basic Editor by
modifying the search for all words in Tom's suggest from
mouse wheel group:microsoft.public.excel.*
to...
mouse wheel (editor or vbe) group:microsoft.public.excel.*

In fact you could start from a
http://google.com/advanced_group_search?q=group:*Excel*&num=100
which provides a more generic starting point for any Excel newsgroups search

The *excel* is pretty much equivalent to microsoft.public.excel.*
since some of the subscription lists such as Excel-L are no longer
carried on Groups. But you can change to microsoft.public.excel*
to be more specific than just *excel* and pick up one additional
newsgroup that had not been carried on for several years but is
once again on the MS newservers.
