How can I make mousewheel work in VB6 IDE?


One annoying behavior of the VB6 IDE editor, especially when switching back to it from more recent tools like VS.NET, is that it doesn't recognize the mousewheel! Maybe VB6 was brought out when most mice didn't have one, but is there a way to fix it so it does recognize the mousewheel?
