Mouse Scroller not working in Visual Basic 6.0

This is a difficulties I encounter when I uses VB6 on new machine. It's somehow rather old bug I guess but its still a good thing to know.

To fix the issue, just download the file provided by Microsoft from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/837910 and register the VB6IDEMouseWheelAddin.dll. Then follow the exact steps as per below:

1. Start Visual Basic 6.0.
2. Click Add-Ins, and then click Add-in Manager.
3. In the Add-in Manager list, click MouseWheel Fix.
4. Click to select the Loaded/Unloaded check box, and then click to select the Load on Startup check box.
5. Click OK.
