Can we use the mouse wheel in the VBA module editors?

[Stefano Gatto]

I am not sure whether this is my system or the Visual Basic Environment in
Excel, but I never could use the mouse wheel to scroll through VBA subs and
functions...

All the rest of the applications installed on my PC are reactive to the
mouse wheel events. My system is WinXP.

Can someone confirm to me either of the 2 possibilities I mention above?

Thank you and have a nice day.

Hi Stefano,

It is a problem with the Version 5 Microsoft Intellimouse drivers.

Either revert to Version 4 or use a third party driver product, for example,

This is a nice way to use the wheel in VB Editor:

Thanks Bob,

I wasn't sure how another driver would interfere with the rest of my system
(IT staff recommend and forbids not to change anything like that on the PC in
the office...), so I prefered to use Mike's solution below, which seems to
work well.
Note I not sure either how VBScroll is compatible with my system, but I did
not want to uninstall my driver, which is Synaptics ver 7.5.18.1, by the way.

I downloaded and installed this program. It works perfectly (for the time
being).

Thank you for your help.
