Mouse won't scroll in Visual Basic Editor

Intellimouse Optical w/ 4 button and wheel.

I just had my computer built and all the latest Intellimouse drivers are
installed. The mouse scrolls well in most other applications.

However, it won't scroll when I am in the Visual Basic Editor while using
Access. This sucks because I am always scrolling around in the screen. Any
fixes you are aware of.

Not a week ago I was scrolling around the the Editor screen without a care
in the world. And have been for years.

There are a few screens in Windows that the scrolling with the wheel does
not work as well as the Address Book window in Outlook XP.

Thanks much,

Seth

If you are talking about VB 6 you have no luck.

Yep - intellimouse won't scroll. There are a number of third party adapts
that will get you scrolling.

I'm using vbscroll right now (http://www.gasanov.net/VBScroll.htm)
