Hello Jim, First of all, if the MBP is still on Leopard, you won't have the Trackpad Commander. You can check this by going to the Apple menu (VO-m) then navigating down to About This Mac and pressing Return. If you navigate right, you'll find the level of the OS (10.6.5 if it has the latest version).
Another reason for the Trackpad Commander to be missing is if the MBP doesn't have the multitouch trackpad. If there is a separate long bar in front of the trackpad, then it is an older machine and the Trackpad Commander cannot work on it.
