Mouse not functional in Remote Desktop session

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely (More info?)

Hi,

I have a work PC running XP Pro and has Remote Desktop enabled.

I am connecting to it from home on a Win 2000 Pro machine with Remote
Desktop Client installed.

When I connect, I can use keyboard and/or mouse at the login screen, then
once I have entered the password, the mouse pointer moves as expected, but
mouse clicks are completely ignored. I can use Alt-Tab to move around, but
really need normal mouse functionality too!

Has anyone any ideas...my work PC (a laptop) has a wireless Microsoft Mouse
and my home PC has a wireless Logitech keyboard and mouse.

Ideas anyone?

Thanks in Advance

Simon Mc.
