    Hi All,

    Does anybody know how to simulate the right Mouse Button in Windows running within Parallels?

    Thanks,
    Sal:)

    On what?

    On a laptop with all the latest OSX software, and the function enabled in system preferences, a two finger tap on the trackpad will do it. Normally it's a control-click, but if you are plugging in a mouse, do yourself a BIG favor and get a two button wheel mouse. It will work in both Windows and OSX. Windows was designed for a two button mouse, and there's no way to get full Windows functionality without one because all the key combinations that might be used to turn a one button click into a right click are used in Windows for other things.

    This is a problem you don't want to solve -- get a two button mouse. (A big eight bucks).
