No text cursor since upgrade to Office 2003

Just upgraded to Office Pro 2003 from Office Pro XP and added FrontPage 2003.
I can't see a cursor in any application search box and any FP window. I see
text when I type but placing cursor in middle of text string shows nothing.

Have I missed a setup option? Everything worked in XP.

Thanks,

Kim

Well, since you haven't received any other responses, I'll suggest updating
your video drivers and changing hardware acceleration.

You know, I think I've seen posts abuot this type of thing before, but I
can't seem to locate them right now.

Echo,

No help. Ran the slider up and down several times. Upon further review,
all the "type a question" text boxs fail to show cursor and only FP2003
doesn't show cursor in design windows.

Thanks for your reply,

Kim

Echo,

Found this under FP 2003 newsgroup under "Cannot See the Cursor in FP2003"
Worked like a champ for me.

Control Panel
Accessibility Options
Display
Change the cursor to be wider, APPLY
Change the cursor to be narrow again, APPLY

Great! Thanks for reporting back!

(Dang, wish I could have remembered that the other day -- I know I've seen
that fix before!)
