If you don't know, the mouse wheel is actually reported to the X server
as buttons 4 and 5 (at least if your X server is correctly configured.)
Therefore, all you need is a mouse binding for each button--e.g.:

Mouse 4 R A GotoDesk -1
Mouse 5 R A GotoDesk +1

The above will go to the previous desktop if you scroll the mouse wheel
up, and to the next desktop if you scroll the mouse wheel down. If
that's not exactly what you're looking for, hopefully it's enough
information to get you on the right track.
