Hi,

I could use some help with using a mouse in my program.

I am trying to use video page swapping, and can't get the mouse cursor
to display on the second video page(page #1). I have tried using function 
0x1d of int. 0x33 to set the mouse display page, but its not working.
I can draw on the second page,  but the mouse cursor isn't visible.
When I query the mouse page using function 0x1e it says the mouse is on
page 1.

I'm programming using Borland C++.
The display is in graphics mode.
I'm using 640x350 mode with a VGA card to get two video pages.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Bob Wiegand
