Hi everyone,

I found this module which allows scrolling with the mouse wheel ComboBox and ListBox. It works well as long as the workbook is opened on the main display but if you working with multiple displays and have your spreadsheet application opened on a different display the mouse wheel does not work. Is there a way to extend the feature on the additional displays?

VBA Code:
Option Explicit

#If Win64 Then
    Private Type POINTAPI
        XY As LongLong
    End Type
#Else
    Private Type POINTAPI
        X As Long
        Y As Long
    End Type
#End If

Private Type MOUSEHOOKSTRUCT
    Pt As POINTAPI
    hWnd As Long
    wHitTestCode As Long
    dwExtraInfo As Long
End Type

#If VBA7 Then
    Private Declare PtrSafe Function FindWindow Lib "user32" _
                                            Alias "FindWindowA" ( _
                                                            ByVal lpClassName As String, _
                                                            ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long ' not sure if this should be LongPtr
    #If Win64 Then
        Private Declare PtrSafe Function GetWindowLongPtr Lib "user32" _
                                            Alias "GetWindowLongPtrA" ( _
