Here's the problem side scrolling is not workign right.

1. split a spreadsheet vertically so you have left and right sides.
2. Pick a cell on the right side and using your mouse wheel side scroll.

When my user does this the left split side scrolls, not the right one where
he selected. I have used Detect and Repair to set Excel back to default
settings with no luck. I have uninstalled and re-installed the Intellipoint
6.2 software for the mouse. I have tried 2 MS wireless mice.

Any ideas?

If you freeze the left pane then the idea is that it is frozen for
horizontal scrolling (left is independent of right side for horizontal
scrolling), whereas you're doing a vertical scrolling. Conversely, the
horizontal split would make top/bottom independent for vertical scrolling.

I understand that. The problem is this works on other users computers
without issue. If the user turns the split into freeze panes then it works
like it is supposed to. I cannot determine why he cannot scroll using the
mouse wheel (left and right) from the right split.
