Once in awhile I get a bold flashing rectangle as the cursor in the vb editor.

I don't know what makes it appear and don't know how to get rid of it unless I close out of Excel.

I would think that it is an option selectable somewhere, but cannot find how to revert back to the "normal" | like cursor.

I think the last time it appeared, I had tossed my glasses onto the keyboard to answer the phone, and when I came back to the editor I had the bold cursor.

Where is the control for this, as Help and Google did not turn up anything.

Excel 2010.
