Default Increasing Scrolling Speed


First let me apologize for posting twice, but I am having internet issues

Okay, I am using a Microsoft Windows Optical Mouse 2000

I accidentally discovered this reading feature, which I use often

It doesn't work for me either, which is why I'd like to know what mouse you
are using?

I realize I hold down the left button of my Microsoft mouse

What I like to do is collect reading material from my RSS feeds and save
them in a Word 2007 doc for later reading

I increase the font to 72 so I can sit in my easy chair and read the
scrolling document, which I get by holding down the left button of my
mouse a
few moments on the Vertical Scroll Bar on the left of my document

I accidentally discovered this Word feature and thoroughly enjoy it as
well
as find it helpful to reading

Apparently, it is an undocumented feature of Word

zyzzyva,
Hmm, right click does not work for me here. But I always use the
scrollwheel, click the scrollwheel, you a double arrow now move the mouse
upwards or downwards and the document starts to scroll, it scrolls faster
when you move away from the double arrow, slower when you move towards
it.
In any case once it starts moving you can release the mouse.

I use Word 2007

A neat feature I use to read documents is Scrolling: right click and
hold
down the extreme right down arrow until it starts scrolling and the
Word
Doc
scrolls WITHOUT me holding down the right mouse button

Is there a way to adjust the speed of this Scroll?
