I cannot scroll in the VBA editor by the mouse wheel

[M Shafaat]

Hi,
How can I make the mouse wheel button to function in the VBA editor?
I have two different installations of Office Pro 2003 on two different PC:s
(from two different CD:s). In one of them the mouse scrolling is
functioning, but not in the other one. Is this dependent on which version or
build of Office I have installed or is this a matter of mouse hardware or
driver?



In both machines the mouse scrolling is functioning in other programs.

None of the "classic" VB(A) IDEs support mousewheel messages natively. However,
older Intellipoint drivers will accomodate them. So, you can either downgrade
Intellipoint on the machine(s) where scrolling isn't working, or you can load a
utility that will help VB(A) to recognize the mousewheel.

Mouse scrolling works in Office 2007. Microsoft fixed the editor in that
version.
