    Running VISTA HP.
    If I am on a web page... such as this now... and I press the scroll wheel the symbol with two up/down arrows appears and moving the mouse causes the page to scroll. All OK and as it should be.
    BUT... I am sure that same function worked on Windows documents, WORKS, NOTEPAD etc and it doesn't. Am I imagining that or should it ? and if so any ideas.

    For me it works in MS Word, but not in notepad.

    Am using WORKS 8.
    Doesn't work on anything there. Sure it used too.
    Interesting that it doesn't work in notepad though... maybe I am imagining it !
