Sometimes, instead of scrolling down the sheet my mouse wheel decides it wants to scroll across the screen. Can you explain??

Hi Anthony

Are you using a mouse with an infra red connection or with the ball?

Hi Anthony.

There is one feature I know of, where you press the middle (scroll wheel) mouse button once. This toggles the 'pan' mode in Excel. You can then slowly move the mouse in any compass direction, and the sheet will scroll in that direction. (eg. move a little to the right and the sheet will scroll right). The further away you move the mouse cursor from the original position you clicked, the faster the scrolling rate. Press the middle (scroll wheel) button again to stop scrolling.

Give this a go, and see if it's the same thing that was happening to you. You may have a sensitive middle mouse button (scroll wheel) that when you are attempting to scroll down, it also presses the button, too.

Regards, Rich
