Thanks to all.  My initial thoughts of a hi res mouse are out the 
window(s???).  I thought of this method, too, but was hoping for a mouse 
controlled method.

Both on Mac and Windows machines, the sliders are a bit hard to be precise
with.....sort of like using a fire axe to filet a fish.

The suggested way is to highlight and click the value you want to adjust
and then use the up and down arrows on your keyboard to get to where you
want to go, then hit Enter or Return to fix it in place.
