"TF" terryfarrell%40%6d%73%6e%2ecom wrote in message ... Same here too. I've used Word 2003 since pre-beta release and I have only seen it happen once too. It obviously happens but so rarely that MS are unable to simulate it in order to fix the problem (rather like the Handwriting Recognition bug). -- Terry Farrell - Word MVP http://word.mvps.org/ "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... I have been using Word 2003 since it first came out and have experienced this problem exactly once. It is indeed a mystery. -- Suzanne S.

"A DeLew" wrote in message ... Thanks I think. I guess there is some comfort in having no hope!!!! It is a mystery as to why some Word 2003 users have the problem and others do not. I know lots of folks that have used 2003 for awhile now and have never seen the problem. Oh, lucky me! Sincerely thanks for taking the time to respond. I'll continue to zoom. |

Word 2003 Cursor display
I have also had Office 2003 for several years on my personal PC and on two
laptops. Never saw this dot cursor at all. Wonder if removing and re-installing Office would resolve it, or doing a repair? |

You can resolve it permanently by adding the following lines to both an
autoopen and an autonew macro in normal.dot on the errant machine. The second zoom setting is the setting you normally work at. With ActiveWindow.View .Type = wdPrintView .Zoom.Percentage = 500 .Zoom.Percentage = 100 End With Reinstalling rarely achieves anything useful and repairing is unlikely to work because it isn't broken. It's a bug! -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org A DeLew wrote: I have also had Office 2003 for several years on my personal PC and on two laptops.
