I am a new Macbook pro & parallels user. I have installed windows XP, finally & successfully, but I cna not ge the right click mouse function to work. Any suggestions? I am not the most proficient computer user.
Thanks,
ME
 
Does the right mouse button work in Mac mode? If it does it should work in parallels too.

I think the default option for the Mac is a single mouse button, but you can go into the system preferences and configure your mouse to be a 2-button mouse.

In my mouse setup, I have the left button set as "Primary Button". The right button is set as "secondary button." The two side buttons are both set for Expose - All windows. The track ball is set for Dashboard. My right button works fine under both Windows and Mac with this configuration.

Good point! I don't think that is enabled by default though, you would have to enable it in system preferences:

SYSTEM PREFS --> KEYBOARD & MOUSE --> Enable 'Place two fingers on trackpad and click button for secondary click'

Then you can just put both fingers on the trackpad and click to a "right click".
