Although you didn't specify which driver version you are using, I
would guess it is Intellipoint Version 5. If so, that driver is flawed
and doesn't work correctly. Microsoft offers a "fix" for the mouse
wheel scrolling problem in VB6's IDE at this web page

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=837910

but some consider this a half-hearted solution which still leaves
problems (you still won't be able to scroll a FlexGrid control). Other
possibilities are

VBScroll: http://www.gasanov.net/VBScroll.htm

FreeWheel: http://www.geocities.com/SiliconVall...freewheel.html

Rick
Great advice.
As an VB6 dabbler I keep an eye on this group & learn a lot.
The scroll problem has bugged me for ages & as Roy say's VBScroll works a
treat.

Thanks

To err is human but it takes a computer to really mess things up!
