Mouse drivers that work with VBA & horiz scrolling?
 

Hi,
I have an Intelimouse Explorer 4.0 with MS Intellipoint
5.0 mouse drivers and I was having problems being able to
use the "scroll wheel" while editing VBA Excel program
code so someone said I should use the 4.1 Intellimouse
drivers because they worked better. Well the problem is
that I can use the "scroll wheel" for the intellimouse
but now with the "4.1 Intellipoint" driver I can't use
the "horizontal scroll" feature on the intellimouse.

Is there a driver out that will work both in Excel VBA
and also enable the horizontal scrolling features?

Thanks
Chet

Mouse drivers that work with VBA & horiz scrolling?
 

Hi Chet,

Not that I know of. Unfortunately, the version 5.x drivers do not allow for
scrolling in the VBE. But the 4.x drivers do not support "tilt-wheel" mice,
which allow for horizontal scrolling.

You may be able to find a third-party driver that will allow both scrolling
directions with your mouse, but I don't know of any offhand.
