Hi Eileen:

I am surprised that no one on this list has suggested this. A colleague
prodded me to write.

Have you experimented with Windows' MouseKeys and Stickeykeys?

Both are available under "My Computer / Control Panel / Accessible
Features."

The Mousekey option permits control of the mouse via the number pad (8
is up, 4 is left, 9 is diagonally up-right, etc.). MouseKeys will also
allow you to control the speed of the pointer.

Sticky Keys permit the user to press the "shift" then a key, "ctrl" then
the key, or "alt" then the key. Pressing the "shift", "crtl", or "alt"
key twice holds the key down, until pressed again.

I'm a one-handed typist, and never touch a mouse!

Hope this helps

Jim

| I have a 12-yr old client, with CP. The team is looking for a mouse
for the
| PC with one click button only. (ie - like the Mac mice used to be.)
Any
| suggestions?
|
| We are going to trying out a Kensington Expert Mouse trackball with
the
| programmable buttons too.
|
| Thanks!
