that's true!
But where do I make these changes then. I mean, which path do I walk
to enter these lines?

Funny though that it actually works for me then...
I have overwritten my normal.dot with someone that of else and the
problems stays away...

That's not a particularly good plan! Rename normal.dot and a new
default one will result. However this cursor issue is caused by a
minor software bug and changing normal.dot will not necessarily
affect it. If you want a permamnent fix you'll need an autonew and
an autoopen macro in normal.dot with the following lines.

With ActiveWindow.View
.Zoom.Percentage = 500
.Zoom.Percentage = 100
End With

The second zoom is your preferred setting.

For a slightly more permanent fix. Use "normal.dot" from someone
else who does not have this problem. Overwrite your own normal.dot
with this file. Of course adjust the necessary things later on.

Change the Zoom to 500% and then back to restore the correct

The size of my mouse cursor has changed all of a sudden. The
original size can still be seen while using applications like
notepad or excel, but the cursor size in word has become
extremely small. How can i change the size of the same?
