x-axis and y-axis problem

[dharry%2540kancharla.net]

Does anyone know how to set up the view so that the y-axis will increase as the mouse moves up and the x-axis will increase as the user moves from left to right like a cartesean coordinate system.

Nearly every mapping mode other than MM_TEXT does that -- if you want to change JUST the Y direction, you'll probably want to use MM_ISOMETRIC. If you do a search for "mapping mode", it'll turn up several examples that should give you a good start on things.
