Can't get object properties with right click

I've set something without realising it, and today when I right click on an
object on a slide I get three options
Move here
Copy here
Cancel
instead of the normal menu including access to the object properties.

I'd be extremely grateful if anyone can tell me what I've accidentally set,
and how to get back to normal behaviour.

I'm using Powerpoint 2000.

Many thanks.

You get the Move here etc menu if you right click and MOVE the mouse.

Maybe you have a new mouse
faulty mouse
changed mouse settings?

Thanks for your reply. It must have been another application causing this. I
closed all windows and started Powerpoint again and normal service was
resumed. No idea what was causing it, I've never seen it before.

Thanks for your help.
