Many thanks for trying again, Chris, but I must be "thicker" than I thought or
have a mental block here! I may be almost there, but the last step defeats
me.
When I press Shift, Control and Tab I am on an Advanced property sheet.
The only way forward seemed to be to activate a button labelled "Advanced
Feature Settings". This takes me to two property sheets, one labelled
Touch Pad and the second "Other". Neither seems to have the Check box I
need.
Any idea where I am going wrong? I suppose that it could be that the
screen reader I am using (Hal 8) is not picking something up - if necessary I
will install something like NVDA and see if I have any more luck.
Thanks anyway,
Douglas
