Does anyone know of any utilities that would let me change the orientation
of my mouse?

I would like Left-Right movements to become Down-Up movements, and vice
versa.

My mouse is a Dell optical mouse and it appears to be a Logitech design.

I can't actually help, but may I ask why?

Carpal tunnel...

It helps to place the mouse on my desk between me and my keyboard.
Unfortunatley, it leaves my hand and he mouse at 90 degrees to normal.

try using a trackball instead...it will get some getting used to, but it will relieve some of the stress.

I don't know just how the mouse transmits direction. It may be via
pulse sign, or via pulse phase (wrt other pulse). You will have to
investigate. If by sign, you may be able to trade two wires,
depending on handedness.

Please do not top-post. Your answer belongs after (or intermixed
with) the quoted material to which you reply, after snipping all
irrelevant material. See the following links:

I use a Microsoft Trackball currently, but still have plenty of
Logitech Marble trackballs around. Both the MS IntelliPoint
and Logitech software have Orientation setting. It's just a
wizard under "Activities" for the MS. I seem to remember the
Logitech software having more user options for that feature.

And please do not fail to snip inappropriate quoted material,
especially including sig lines.
