newbie mame ini help

[wrench]

I need some handholding on a mame problem,I'm can't get the mouse(trackball) to work in mame games.I know you need to alter the mame ini file and change mouse0 to mouse1,but I don't have a mame ini file in the mame directory and can't figure out how to create it with that cc config thing that the doc file talks about.Can someone please give me a detailed description on how to create this ini file?I've searched the forum and found a few hits but nothing that explains it clearly enough for me to make anything of it.I'm using regular mame(not mame32) with ultrastyle for the frontend.Thanks.

Never mind I figured it out,thanks for humoring a newbie,I was trying to run from the run command in the start menu,you need to run mame.exe-cc from a dos command prompt.
