Auto scroll stopped working

R

Renny Bosch

I have a Microsoft optical wheel mouse, and the wheel stopped scrolling --
but only in Access (when viewing the code). It used to work fine.

I recently downloaded an updated driver for it. Is there something I need
to do to Access for it to respond to the scroll wheel?

TIA -- Renny

Hi Renny,
I recently downloaded an updated driver for it.
That was something you shouldn't have done. You can download an older driver
that will restore this functionality. Here is one site that offers it:

http://www.accesssig.org/
Click on "Hotfixes And More", then scroll down the list until you find this
topic:

Scrolling Down VB Lane (Added 1/30/2005)
Wouldn’t it be nice to use the scroll wheel in the VBA Editor window. Well,
thanks to Marc, we can now easily download IP4. Presumably this will work
with all operating systems except for Windows Server 2003.
Download IP4

I thought I just recently read a Microsoft KB (Knowledge Base) article on
this, but I can't seem to find it at the moment.

Thank you very much, Tom, for the extremely fast and helpful response (and
on a Saturday night too). I tried the recommended KB method #1 first but
couldn't understand the procedure, so I used the KB method 2 (downgrade to
version 4.12) and that's working fine.
