Presumably, the touchpad's driver is supposed to convert that gesture
into the same Windows message that the scroll wheel on a mouse would
generate. We've had several reports here that Word 2007 doesn't "see"
the scroll wheel of certain mice but works ok with others.
You could check the IBM web site (or maybe it's Lenovo's site now) for
an updated touchpad driver. Other than that, I can't suggest a fix.

I'm running the trial version of Word 2007 (final release, not beta) on an
IBM Thinkpad T30 notebook. I cannot use the touchpad to scroll. (Usually
if I run my finger down the right side of the touchpad, the window scrolls.)
Scrolling still works in other applications. Is this me or is this a bug.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
