Cursor Size
Help! My cursor shrunk to what seems to be a font 2 or 3 size. What
happened? It's on all of my documents now, so it has to be some kind of a general control on my global template. Thank you for any assistance you may be able to provide. Mad Dog |

Cursor Size
I have the same problem, and it can be fixed by changing the zoom or by
changing to Read layout and back again. But I find these are temporary fixes and when I close out of Word and go back in, the problem is there again. My small cursor has only appeared in the last day or so. Does anyone know of a permanent fix ?? "Jay Freedman" wrote: Mad Dog wrote: Help! My cursor shrunk to what seems to be a font 2 or 3 size.

There is supposed to be permanent fix by accessing the Command Prompt. I
tried it but it doesn' change the size either. Go to START-ACCESSORIES-COMMAND PROMPT. Right click on the diaglog box title and SELECT Defaults, then check the size under OPTIONS - maybe it will work for you - it didn't for me so it is still a mystery. Using the ZOOM procedure works but is only temporary for the current document. "Suzanne S.

I don't see how settings for the Command Prompt could make a
difference in Word. But note that you can use auto macros in normal.dot to apply the "zoom fix."
