   Hello Martin!   
      
      
    MF>BTW ..... my mouse scroll wheel doesn't work in SemPoint :(   
      
   True.  I did not notice that until now.  Despite being a Windows prog, I     
   primarily treated SEM as a keyboard prog: since the hands would be close     
   to the keyboard most of the time, the fingers were never far away from the     
   arrow keys for "scrolling" around.  Many of the speedbar icons have     
   keyboard shortcuts.  Only a few of those need an actual mouse click.   
      
   I see that OXP is mouse-scrollable in many of the views/lists. That is     
   probably what you are used to enjoying.   
      
   Myself, using a laptop with both programs, I rarely feel the need to plug     
   in a mouse.  I can move the Windows arrow using my thumb in the touchpad     
   located just below the keyboard to any part of the screen quite rapidly     
   and "tap" - if I want to.  But I just use the keys.   
      
   Humans are generally adaptable beings.
