The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: This customer is trying to set up her mouse to run with WordPerfect. The mouse is by SUMMA. The software instructions for her mouse tell her not to use the .COM files and the .SYS files together. Sometimes the mouse would seem to work fine except the mouse menu couldn't be brought up with the mouse buttons. On other selections, the mouse menu could be brought up but then the mouse was too sensitive and the pointer jumped all over the place with only slight movement of the mouse.

Normally this customer uses a batch file to start WP and includes the MOUSE.COM file from the mouse software in that batch file, not in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. I tried just starting the mouse at a Dos prompt (we put her updated mouse software into the A drive and typed in A:SGMOUSE/2 ....the /2 sets it to COM 2) Then we started WP. Then we selected MOUSE.COM in WordPerfect. The mouse menus worked fine, but the mouse was still too sensitive even with an acceleration factor of 4. Solutions: After receiving the complete package of the 08/20/90 release the user was no longer having difficulty with the Summa 3-button mouse.
