speed control

Hi,
I am so happy that because of this forum, i've got my robot controller running. I still have a question though:

Last year whoever programmed our robot didn't leave the code, so I don't have it. Anyway, last year, our joysticks worked like this:
If u just move the right joystick forward, the robot moved in an arc towards left, and If u just move the left joystick forward, the robot moved in an arc towards right. That means moving left joystick alone moved the left motor faster than the right motor, but the right motor still moved. When we moved both joysticks forward or backword, the robot moved in a straight line forward or backward.

I just want to know what I should do to the default code, so that if I move one joystick forward alone, it moves that side motor faster than the other side motor, and also how can I control the speed of both motor

Sorry for boring u with my long story, but I need this info to work with my motors
Thanx
