Hello,

In Word 2003, the cursor has suddenly changed from the usual slender line to
a different, almost dot-like shape. I may have hit something funny on my Dell
keyboard but I don't know what it would be. I've tried re-booting with no
luck. I also have been unsuccessful with looking through the online help.
It's driving me mad!

Thanks for any suggestions.....

Jane

Some users have reported that changing the zoom to, say, 500% and then back
will fix this.
