How to get the mouse to work in Windows NT, XP, or Win2000?

CPC software runs in the Command window of Windows NT, XP, and Win2000. This Command window (often referred to as a DOS window) is, by default, setup with "QuickEdit Mode" selected. This prevents the mouse from selecting items in any DOS application screen. You will need to turn off QuickEdit Mode to get normal use of the mouse. If you find that you cannot use your mouse to select screen items, the fix is simple.
