This is a copy from a previous post, thanks to Tim H.  I am resubmitting it
because I can't believe nobody else has experienced it:

When creating a vba list box in excel, word, or powerpoint version 2000 or
2003 (with or without sp3) or Excel 2007, the application disappears/creates
a general exception error.  I'm not creating a form, just inserting a list
box on the
document,sheet or presentation.  

Steps to reproduce.
1.  View, toolbars, visual basic.
2.  Create a list box on the sheet from the tool bar.
3.  Get out of design view.

With the mouse wheel, hold the wheel down in the list box and scroll.  It
takes just one tick and boom.  The mouse works in all of the applications as
expected (other than the list box).  

Is this a bug in excel? or am I missing a method?  or what?
TIA
