Using Update Option From Install, The Mouse S |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer reported that after using the Update option from Install to load the new 05/31/91 release of WordPerfect, the mouse selection in WP had changed from Mouse Systems to Microsoft Mouse. He was using the Genius GM10 Mouse and was loading GMOUSE.COM to drive the mouse. Solutions: The correct selection for WP Mouse Type in this environment is Mouse Driver (MOUSE.COM). Any time an external mouse driver (MOUSE.COM or MOUSE.SYS) is resident, the user should choose Mouse Driver (MOUSE.COM) for the WP Mouse Type so that WP will know that the driver exists and will use it. Development explained that changes in the mouse selection can occur after using the Update option from Install in the following instance: "The file position of the selected mouse is stored in the .SET file. The positions of all the drivers have been changed in the 05/31/91 STANDARD.IRS file and if there is an old .SET file, the displayed driver will be the same number from the beginning of the list as before. The user must re-select the mouse to have it marked correctly." This is why the customer noticed that the mouse selection was changed. When the problem occurs, the mouse listed in Shift-F1, 1-Mouse will be different than the mouse which has the * in Shift-F1, 1-Mouse, 1-Mouse Type. |
