mouse scroll doesn't work in register

I use windows vista 32bit. Microsoft Money Plus deluxe. Installed it as
administrator. Everything seems to work fine except that when I am in the
account register the mouse scroll wheel does not work at all. It works okay
in other parts of Money. Just not in the register. It is a real pain to move
throught the transactions using the scroll bars.
I want to switch to Money from Quicken becasue it would only scroll up and
not down. But that would be preferrable to not scrolling at all!

Please, someone tell what adjustment to make or what I can do to fix this.

Works for me if I highlight a transaction. Are you doing that?

You should be able to scroll. I just verified that it works in my copy
of Money 2007 Home & Business in XP SP2.

I'd start by using Internet Explorer to get rid of all temporary files.
There's no reason that this should work, but it's easy to do, and lots
of strange problems seem to be related to the cache.

Then I'd look at the mouse drivers. The easiest thing to do is to delete
the mouse in the Device Manager (opting to delete the driver files if
asked), then let Windows discover and reinstall the default driver.
Finally, run Microsoft Update to get any updates.

Try these easy steps, then we'll see what to do next.

(Gee -- this is fun. I haven't done this since I ran the helpdesk at
Brinks Armored Car.)

It won't work if you just hover over it. You must click on the register to
obtain the focus and the mouse scroll should then work.

I don't think your mouse affects the problem. Either the app
recognizes the wheel, or it doesn't. I believe it will work fine as
long as the list has the focus. That means you have to click somewhere
in it. As another respondent wrote, hover doesn't work.

I have the exact same issue with Microsoft Money 2007. I am using
Windows Vista Home Premium, Microsoft Wireless IntelliMouse Explorer
v2.0. All other scrollable elements seem to work O.K., but in the
account register, when you give focus by selecting a transaction, the
ability to scroll is lost completely. This is very annoying and
inexcusable. I am guessing it has something to do with the mouse
driver included with Intellipoint 6.2 software though I did note prior
to installing this that scrolling in the account register in Money
2007 was broken or very very limited.

Chris,
I believe that you are wrong here. Every application (including Money) has
some hook into the mouse driver (or visa versa). It's very possible that a
mouse works with lots of applications but not with Money.

To the original poster: I would recommend that you make sure that you have
the latest driver for your mouse. Go to the intellimouse website to
download it. If this does not work you could try a third party application.
Flywheel works very well in XP with applications that have lost the
scrolling ability in a new OS. Perhaps it would work in VISTA as well. It
is abandonware, so if you follow this link you can get the download and free
registration information.

With a new computer running Vista 32-bit, I just plugged in a
Microsoft IntelliMouse Optical USB. I did not provide drivers or
install anything for the mouse, so I am using a default driver. The
wheel scrolls the register up and down in Money Plus.

I suppose I can uninstall the IntelliPoint software and use the
suggested app FlyWheel, but I would rather not install a third-party
solution to use my Microsoft Hardware to control Microsoft Software
via a Microsoft Operating System.

If I recall correctly, when Intellipoint was not installed, the
account register was scrollable. However, it was very slow scrolling
as if it were not adhering to the parameters for scroll speed/
acceleration set in the control panel applet.

Cal, could you install the latest Intellipoint software and see if you
are still able to scroll the register? Also, the OP and I are both
using the same Wireless IntelliMouse Explorer v2.0, not a wired
optical version. If anyone has Intellipoint driving their mouse on
Vista and is using Microsoft Money 2007 or Money Plus without any
scrolling issues in the account register, please let me know.

Thanks,
Marc

I did. The wheel still scrolls within the register as would the
right scroll bar.

What changed by default is that pushing the wheel as a button brings
up a magnifier and closes again the next push, and the right button
brings up the program flipper.

Make that the right side button rather than the regular right
button....

I just checked my system, and the mouse is scrolling correctly, although I
could have sworn that this wasn't always the case. Perhaps I was having
problems with last year's version of Money? and it was fixed with this
year's version?

Dell XPS 710, 4 gig ram
Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit
Microsoft Plus Money Home and Business
Wireless Intellimouse Explorer 2.0, Intellipoint driver version 6.20.173.0,
plugged into round mouse port
