the tablet is serial, not USB, so HID is no use here, there may be
some kind of wacom object for serial tablets??? or you may need to
use an object for the system mouse???

hey simon, thanks for reply
so [hid] is strictly for usb HID then eh? hmm..
I am not sure if a serial mouse object would give me that wonderful pressure sensitivity that the tablet pen puts out.
looks like its hackin' time then...
