mouse button number two doesn't work

I have a Logitech mouse with a wheel. I have configured it to function as the backward key on my Internet browser. Always when I use the Emacs manual or when I open a direstory and want to choose a file to open I have to use the return key to make my choice. How do I make mouse button No. 2 work so I don't have to use the return key all the time.

Thankful for answers, Lars

Have you tried the suggestions in the GNU Emacs FAQ For Windows:

     <http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/windows/faq4.html#mouse>

FYI: The news group gnu.emacs.help and the mailing list
help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org is the same -- they're gatewayed.  So please
don't post the same question to both of them.

Also, don't multi-post the same question in both gnu.emacs.help and
comp.emacs.  It's fine to post to both, but please cross-post instead of
posting the question separately.

What operating system are you running on? If MS Windows, your mouse
driver may have an advanced tab where you can turn off wheel support
for specific programs. If you turn off wheel support for Emacs, that
may work (Emacs contains its own wheel support so the wheel should
still work as a wheel!).
