2112 1999-06-12 08:14:00 I have a Honeywell Mouse with a third button (A middle one).

Windows 98 sees it as a standared mouse with two buttons.

1/ is there a driver to support this mouse - with the extra button ??
2/ Under win98 what would the middle button be used for and what supports it in the way of programs ???
3/ I notice in some games I can use either lhm button or middle button to do the same function - is there any games that support the middle button for something different other than mimic the left button function.
(Maybe after installing a mouse driver for it under windows there will be another function for it in some games as well) ???

I have been in touch with Honeywell via the net but they tell me they have sold the rights to the mouse and no longer support it...
In other words they could /would not help me with these questions.

Also I have approched my dealer / and another computer outlet - and they say that you don't need another mouse driver and it's in the software as to the support for it ???
Is this true - if it is then nothing seems to support it ???
So why have a mouse with a middle button with no function ??

Hope someone can answer these questions...

:)
