Using the Mouse

As an alternative to the keyboard, you can use your mouse to choose commands from the menus and select items on the screen. To move the mouse pointer, just slide the mouse on your desk in the direction you want to move the pointer; the mouse pointer will move on the screen in the same direction. Mouse pads are not required, but they do provide a clean, flat surface.

Once you have pointed to an item with the mouse, you can select the item by tapping the left mouse button once. For some tasks, such as opening a document or running a program, you’ll need to double-click the item. To double-click, point to the item and tap the left mouse button twice, quickly.

The right mouse button functions differently in each application. In many programs, the right button displays a context-sensitive menu.
