- Nope,
- But i am not running a boot image, just plain MDOS. Nothin' fancy. I
- do have vmouse.sys in the autoexec.bat (its there by default), but to
- run Executor i NEED the MOUSE.COM from the OS2/MDOS directory in the
- autoexec.bat for the DOS session. If i don't the mouse just sits in
- the corner and doesn't move. This is the only program that needs the
- extra mouse driver.
- I'm not saying everyone needs this, but i did.
-
- Also, MOUSE_EXCLUSIVE_ACCESS doesn't affect it since i don't run it in
- a window and thus doesn't have TWO mouse cursors.

- Later.
