TitleMouse Wheel in ListBox Crashes Excel
Description
KeywordsMouse Wheel, ListBox, Excel
CategoriesOffice, Bug Alerts
 
Thanks to Rick Paquette (rpaquette AT jsanet.com) for pointing this out.

On some systems, if you place a ListBox on an Excel worksheet or UserForm, click on the ListBox at run time, and then try to scroll the control with the mouse wheel, it crashes Excel.

This doesn't seem to happen on all systems and probably happens for certain versions of the ListBox control used by Excel. It also doesn't seem to happen for ComboBox controls.

Fixed

Rick kept an eye on this problem and eventually Microsoft posted a hotfix that addresses this problem. Way to go Rick and Microsoft!
