This article was previously published under Q131253



SYMPTOMS
In Visual FoxPro for Windows, a right mouse click displays a context- sensitive short-cut menu for that specific function or area. If the secondary button option of the IntelliPoint software's Button tab is enabled, the Visual FoxPro context-sensitive short-cut menu items are disabled when a right mouse click is executed.



CAUSE
The settings in the IntelliPoint driver (Version 1.1) override the settings specific to an application.



WORKAROUND
To enable the right mouse button functions of Visual FoxPro, the setting for the Secondary button must be set to Unassigned.



STATUS
This behavior is by design.



Steps to Reproduce Behavior

 * 1) Access the IntelliPoint Mouse driver settings by choosing Mouse from the Control Panel, or by clicking the 'IntelliPoint Tools & Controls' icon in the 'Microsoft Input Devices' group.
 * 2) On the Buttons page, assign the Seconday button to Help.
 * 3) Observe that in Visual FoxPro, clicking the right mouse button now displays the Help topics rather than the appropriate task list available for that particular Visual FoxPro feature.
