Question:
 
Why am I having trouble modifying the blink rate of the mouse cursor
in Word's text mode ("word/c")?
 
Resolution:
 
The text-mode cursor is hardware generated. Word restores the rate of
blinks-per-second regardless of any modifications made outside of
Word. This restriction applies to versions of Word prior to 5.00.
