Is there any way to use the mouse wheel in the vb editor.
To scroll up and down etc. ??
Thanks

To put it simply, nope.
It is in my opinion the biggest downfall of the program.

WHAT?? I just saw this post now, in VB ever since I got it I have been using my third (roller wheel) button to scroll up and down!

Well it doesn't work for me or him so there must be a glitch in the software somewhere or maybe it is the different mice we are using.
I'm glad it works for you though, you lucky, lucky...

There Must be a way..
I found another guy on the web that can use his mouse wheel in vb6 code window..
He said he installed Inteli mouse driver.
I have only Microsoft ps2 mouse option in control pannel/Drivers, I chose this but no Joy..

Thank's
Phil Hirst.

I'v sorted it out (for me), It's a driver Problem.
http://www.microsoft.com/Intellipoint/default.htm
I downloaded latest Intelipoint software (nearly 4 meg)
It has some good points though. But !!! VB code window wheel scroll now works a treat..
I have a microsoft intelimouse 1.1 (only £6.00) or so.
If you do not have a microsoft mouse I sugest trying latest drivers, or even the Intelimouse software.
Good luck & thanks,
Phil Hirst
