Mouse & Osnap Menu

I am trying to get my osnap menu to appear with button 3 (middle button) of the mouse. This is a menu I have imported but cannot seem to get it to move or access in the cui file. The shift-right-click access to the osnap menu is not working either.
The way I have had CAD setup is the right click is the shortcut and the middle mouse is the osnap menu.
Any help getting this function back would be GREATLY appreciated.

Cheers,

While you wait for an answer....

You are giving up most of the abilities of AutoCAD/LT2006 by
not being able to right-click. many more functions and
features are hidden there. Explore restoring that feature
and pick up a mouse with more than three buttons and use
those instead for the functions you desire. Otherwise, IMHO,
you wasted money upgrading or buying this version.

My 2cents worth as a CAD drafter of almost 18years.

Dean,
Thanks for the response. I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing.....
I still use the right mouse button as the shortcut menu / enter and am loving the additions they tossed into this menu.... but am just looking to allow the middle mouse button to access the osnap menu (which I have saved views in for our building drawing) while keeping the right mouse button still doing it's thing.
Is there some voodoo I am missing out on?

Cheers,

You can't shift+right click or ctrl+right-click to get the
osnap pop-up?

Is tempoverrides set to 0 (zero)?

Dean,

After your last message, you sounded surprised that my osnap popup wasn't working. So I reinstalled to get all base files back and did not import my menu files from the previous version and all works well again. I will just have to reenter my commands I had inserted into the osnap menu instead of importing. I must have had a menu 2006 didn't like.
I had thought that something had changed in accessing the osnap popup... hence the major confusion.
Thanks again for your help.

Cheers,

CUI command>Transfer Tab, load your old menu on the
right-hand side, drag and drop between old and new, that
should speed things up for you instead of reentering.
