Hi Douglas,

Please remind me what make and model of laptop you have. (I
may be able to look at the actual User manual)

It is highly possible that the Touch Pad control is actually
in Control Panel, but is listed under a different topic than
simply "Mouse".

George.

Thanks for coming back on this one, Chris - I am still
stuck, despite Dolphin 
Tech Support trying to help over the phone. Presumably we
are talking 
about the item in Control Panel labelled "Mouse Hardware and
Sound".    I 
seem to have only five Property Sheets,  Buttons, Pointers,
Pointer 
Options, Hardware, 
and Advanced, after which I return to Buttons.  Shift,
Control and Tab takes 
me to the Advanced sheet.  Which sheet should contain the
"use Touch 
Pad etc. item? 

By the way this is the Business edition of Vista - I believe
that I have read 
that the five editions differe significantly in their
Control Panels.

Any further comments would be most welcome - I hope that I
am not 
missing something obvious, 

Douglas
