These buttons are X1 and X2 buttons.

#X1 should work. If does not work, maybe mouse software maps these buttons to keys. Usually it is configurable. Or, try to set keyboard triggers for that keys. In Properties, select Keyboard, click Hot-key field, and click 4-th or 5-th mouse button. If it is mapped to a key, this should set trigger for that key, eg (166).

When I place #X1 in the Trigger field, it does not trigger the script. When I click the 4th or 5th mouse button in the Hot-key field nothing happens. I'm not quite sure what is happening. I've written software, using AutoIt, that uses the 4th and 5th mouse button and it works fine. If it helps, the mouse I am using is a Belkin Optical mouse I picked up at OfficeMax for $20.

I was using an old version. :roll:
The answer is WWWAAAYYYY too obvious with the new version. Thanks for your help though. :oops:
