Scroll Mouse
Your computer comes with
a scroll mouse. The scroll
mouse directs a cursor on
the Windows desktop, and
you use the cursor to move
quickly and easily through
a document or Web site.
Instead of using the scroll
bar, you can move the
scroll wheel forward or
backward through a
document or Web site.
Moving and copying text
and graphics is known as
dragging and dropping or
drag and drop. As you
perform this procedure, an
outline of the graphic or
text appears as you move
your selection to the new
location.
Tip
Some mouse functions may not
work with all software.
