I searched help but can't see how I can adjust the amount of a "page up" or
"page down" keyboard click. It's not in the basic Windows mouse choice nor in
Kensington's, so it would have to be controlled by the OS or apps, but I
don't see any control in Word, FF or other places I've checked. That seems to
leave the OS.

I'm in XP Pro SP2.

thanx
 
Type of mouse? No scroll tab in mouse?

"keyboard click"? You press a key and click a mouse.

If you're referring to the kb keys, Page Up and Page Down usually page
leaving about one line of the previous page. I don't think this can be
changed.

If you're referring to a click of the Page Up/Page Down area of the
scroll bar (just above/below the arrows), they operate about the same.

The scrolling by the mouse can be changed to scroll 1-3 lines with each
detent in the mouse wheel rotation, or to page up/down according to the
previous limits. This is controlled from the mouse control panel. If
you don't have any controls for the wheel, you need to get drivers that
include wheel settings.

I forget which one, but I think it's the scroll area. I remember there used
to be a way to change the amount of automatic scrolling w/page down, but I
can't find it
