I'm using autocad 14 on a windows XP computer (laptop).
The problem is that I can't use the right mouse button to enter a command. EX. If I want to fillet an part and want to exit the command (with the right mouse button) nothing happens. So I have to push the escape button. If I do this I will exit the active command of course.
Is there anyone who knows a solution to this problem or can't the problem be solved at all and do I need to Buy a new Autocad program?
I use a compaq mouse on a presario 700 laptop with win XP. The right mouse button on my synaptics touchpad doesn't work either.

I thank everyone for their help.

If I remember correctly, the mouse button actions are controlled from the menu files in 14. You will need to edit them with Notepad. The help in 14 can help you customize the mouse button actions.

maybe you can reload again the acad.mnu file.
