VB6 Mousewhell support???

Just curious...

I've noticed for a long time (really annoying) that on all systems I've used VB6 on there seems to be no mouse wheel support.

Like - when your looking at your code, you can use the mouse wheel to scroll up and down.

Any fixes?

Thanks...

I had the same problem. I downloaded and installed the intellimouse software from Microsoft's website and it all works fine now.

Are you talking about during runtime? or design time? If it's during runtime, you need to subclass and catch the WM_MOUSEWHEEL event. Otherwise when it's in design time, it works fine for me.

nope not during runtime....

Hmmm... using a Logitech Optical MouseMan.

I don't like installing the Logitech Mouse Drivers as it seems to have a negative effect on my Q3 play. :)

Funny... VB6 is the only APP I've used that doesn't seem to recognize the scroll wheel.


Thanks
