I have spent a great deal of time trying to interface my logitech mouse
to a Turbo C program via the Mouse Systems Mouse Driver.  First off, the
version of the mouse driver I have does not directly support Turbo C.  But
I have found the best results using the Lattice C mouse call.  All other
mouse calls crash the program.  

The problem I am having occurs when I make the mouse(&m1,&m2,&m3,&m4)
call and m1=1.  This call retrieves the mouses current x (m3) and y 
(m4) values and which button is pressed (m2). For some reason the 
values of m2, m3, and m4 end up in other variables in my program.
I cannot figure this out.

	Has anyone else had this mouse problem ?
