Thanks for the info, Ray. It sounds like you've confirmed what I found. `None'
(`Disabled' in your version), at any level (general or just for `emacs.exe')
means no event is sent to Emacs.
But of course for you it works. ;-) As it did for me, until recently. A setting
of AutoScroll works for you, and it used to work for me. For me, a setting of
AutoScroll still yanks, but it also initiates autoscroll.
Guess I'll need to find a way to replace the driver I have with a generic one.
But I'm not sure how to do that.
Thx - Drew
