Excel cursor
 

I do not like the inflated + cursor of Excel - it is lousy and imparts a
feeling of inaccurate pointing.
Can one change this to the normal arrow type cursor? If so, how?

Hi Doos,

See VBA Help for the application's Cursor property and
see the example code.

Hi,

To change the cursor to the arrow:

Sub ChangeCursor()
Application.Cursor = xlNorthwestArrow
End Sub

To change it back:

Sub ResetCursor()
Application.Cursor = xlDefault
End Sub

Hope that helps.

Hi Norman & Vergel

Thanks for your help!
Only difficulty is that I am a total idiot when it comes to VBA.
Thanks for the code - but what now?

Will this work every time I start Excel?

Thanx
