Does anyone know anything about this and why the wheel function does not
operate with the latest, 5.2, driver?

I'm told that the VBE does not respond to the wheel scroll message so the 4x
mouse driver actually issued line scroll messages instead when it detected
the active app was the VBE (or something like that). This was removed from
the 5x drivers for some reason. I switched back to 4x myself but I know
people who stayed with 5x are happy with the utilities Paul suggested.

In the past I have lost the mouse wheel function in the VBE (I have never
lost it anywhere else). I was told then to download and install the
latest mouse driver. I did and that fixed it.
Today I decided it was time to download the latest mouse driver, if there
was one. I had 4.1 and the latest, I found out, was 5.2. So I downloaded
it and installed it. As a result the mouse wheel function in the VBE was
lost. I restored my system and got back to the 4.1 driver and all is well
again.
Does anyone know anything about this and why the wheel function does not
operate with the latest, 5.2, driver? Thanks for your help. Otto
