cursor disappears
I am a school teacher and have recently begun to use Word (was formally a
Works user for 10 years). I am about ready to go back to my safe Works ancient program due to my disappearing cursor. The cursor shows in my document at the end of text, but will not show when I hit the enter button to go to the next line. I have no idea where I am on the document until I begin typing again- then the cursor reappears. I have tried the "Help" button and cannot find anything on cursors. Can anyone help? Thanks, tired teacher |

Chances are this is a screen display driver problem. Word is very demanding
of the display adapter. Download and install the latest driver for your computer's display adapter. If you are sure you are using the latest driver, then try reducing the display's hardware acceleration. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org tired teacher wrote: I am a school teacher and have recently begun to use Word (was formally a Works user for 10 years).

This can sometimes be a problem if you are using an animated cursor. Mouse
settings can be accessed via the control panel. Hope this helps, Susy "tired teacher" wrote: I am a school teacher and have recently begun to use Word (was formally a Works user for 10 years).
