Changing the middle/wheel click to click-n-drag
-
Hi all, I am working with a non-profit organization on a project for elderly and people with disability. The project is on "re-adjusting" a normal computer mouse. Some of these folks can not double-click, nor hold the left-click down for dragging files/folders. I found the following codes off this website for changing the middle-click to left-double-click. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/MBtn2DblClick.aspx http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cpp/MBtn2DblClickVC.aspx This program would be very handy for them. Regarding the 2nd part, what I am looking for, should work like the following: 1. Move the pointer on a file/folder 2. Press and release the Middle/Wheel Click 3. Move the pointer and it moves/drags the file/folder. 4. Press and release the click again and the pointer releases the file/ folder This should work for the Windows environment. Does the description make sense? Can somebody please point me in the right direction for the second part? Thanks, -Farzad

Hello Farzad, I know this was posted a while back, but I want to help. As it turns out, I was working on a similar program not to long ago and was able to modify it for your use. It's kind of hodge-podged together. It uses a Mouse-hooking class written in C# I came across somewhere on the net and modified for my use. The main form is written in Visual Basic .NET. You can download the code from: HERE Hope that's what you needed, Ray
