    middle mouse scroll wheel in code window

    I am using vb6. I would like to use my middle mouse scroll wheel to scroll through my code in the Code window. It scrolls the procedure box and the object box, just not the code window. I have to scroll with the arrows or the thumb. Is there a setting to get it to work? Thanks.

    Thanks for the help. Works good. Would be great to have it come up automatically when I open vb.

    This works pretty nicely.
    The most difficult part of developing a program is understanding the problem.
    The second most difficult part is deciding how you're going to solve the problem.
    Actually writing the program (translating your solution into some computer language) is the easiest part.

    Please indent your code and use [HIGHLIGHT="VB"] [/HIGHLIGHT] tags around it to make it easier to read.

    This problem occurs because the Visual Basic 6.0 IDE does not have built-in support for scrolling by using the mouse wheel.

    There are various fixes if you search M$.

    I've been programming with VB for 25 years. Started with VB4 16bit Pro, VB5 Pro, VB6 Pro/Enterprise and now VB3 Pro. But I'm no expert, I'm still learning.

    Are there any fixes available for Vista? I can't get the XP fixes to work

    The necessary drivers and software for Vista aren't out there yet.

    Will they ever be for VB6 and Vista? Good question...
