We have a group of users that are very restricted and all
their profiles are local not roaming. I need to setup a
left hand mouse for one of them and when I login as local
admin and change that it keeps that in the local admin
profile and its not propergating to the users profile. Do
I need to make a registry entry to be able to have this
one user have a left hand mouse setup? Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

thanks

You need to log in as that user and then change the setting, as it's a
per-user setting not a per-computer setting.

You could modify the registry of that user (the HKEY_CURRENT_USER hive when
they're logged on) to reflect the left-handed option.

The key to modify is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Mouse

The value is called SwapMouseButtons and is 0 by default and 1 for a
left-handed user.

Regards

Oli
