I have Word 2002 and prefer a cursor that covers one-character space. I have
an approximation of the cursor I want (approximation because it sometimes
covers more and sometimes less than the character space) already designated
in Windows Accessibility. For example, I get that cursor in Hotmail.

But the cursor that shows up in Word is a thin vertical line, like the one
in this message pane. What gives? Also, is there anyway to get a cursor
that is one character space in length and height that also allows the user to
see the character the cursor is covering, like say in WordPerfect 5.1 or on
the the IBM monitors from 25 years ago?

Thanks for your help.
