The only reliable source I know of for mouse programming information is
"Microsoft Mouse Programmer's Reference" from Microsoft Press. It's normally
$29.95 but it comes with a disk. The thing I like about it is that the example
code is provided in virtually any common language you may be using. Alas, it
does not address issues concerning some of the other mouse manufacturers. You
should be in good shape with this info though, because, as I understand it, 
most other mice pretty much adhere to Microsoft mouse compatibility.

I have no personal interest in pushing this book. I simply use it myself
on a regular basis. It does the job for me and maybe it will for you.

Hope you find what you need.
