WORD 200 CURSOR PROBLEM

[Kenqld]

I'm running Word 2000 in Vista. My preference setting is for white text on
blue background. I used that setting for many years in XP with no problems
at all, but in Vista the cursor is black and near invisible! This is very
hard on my eyes (I'm an elderly person). I want to make the cursor white like
the text so it is more easy to see, as it was in XP. Can anybody help me
with that, please?

Hi Ken

I'm running Word 2000 in Vista. My preference setting is for white text on
blue background. I used that setting for many years in XP with no problems
at all, but in Vista the cursor is black and near invisible! This is very
hard on my eyes (I'm an elderly person). I want to make the cursor white like
the text so it is more easy to see, as it was in XP. Can anybody help me
with that, please?

one way to work around this: set the general window preferences (Better
ask in a windows/vista forum for specifics) so that you get a bright
text on a dark background in all applications, then do away with the
option in Word.
