_screen/menu not responsive to mouse 1

[baltman]

Hi guys! I have a problem...

The standard menu in a VFP install on a Server 2008 R2 isn't responsive to mouse clicks but responds to Alt+Key shortcuts. Clicking on it seems to be selecting the toolbar instead. An additional symptom is that I cannot move or resize the _screen except through code.

I tried resetting the _msysmenu and toggling various settings in options and _screen property. I suspect a corrupt file or registry entry but I'm not sure what to target. It is working normally in a parallel set-up.

I'd appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks!

Sounds more like a mouse driver problem than anything in VFP.

Have you checked to see if the problem occurs in any other applications, or whether it's VFP-specific?

The issue was only manifesting with VFP. I updated the mouse driver (the system actually automatically 'updated' it by rolling a 2008 driver back to a 2006 driver) and logged out and back in and it seems to be working for now. Got to love Windows xD.

Thanks
