    Scroll Wheel in Excel 2007 (not working with formulas)

    Hi everyone,

    My company has just upgraded me to Excel 2007..... and the most annoying problem I have found (apart from re-learning the menus!), is related to my scroll wheel (Microsoft Intellimouse Optical USB).

    I can scroll in spreadsheets fine, but when I try and construct a formula, Ie: press = or +, then I cannot use the scroll wheel to select cells, I must use the scrolling bar on the right hand side of the document.

    This is infuriating me!

    Just wondering if anyone had the same problem or anyone had a suggestion. I have made sure that my mouse drivers are updated etc.

    Thanks very much.

    Ollie

    Go to Control Panel/ Mouse/ Wheel - uncheck the universal option and check the one with that looks like "Use Microsoft 97" one
