SYMPTOMS
When you move a pointing device, such as a mouse, over a link in the Object
Browser in the Visual Basic Editor, the pointer changes into a very small
cursor in the shape of a pointing hand. Depending on the resolution of your
monitor, the pointer may barely be visible.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem
and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it
becomes available.
MORE INFORMATION
When you move the pointer over a hyperlink, the pointer changes into a
pointing hand. This pointing hand is usually roughly the same size as the
arrow or plus pointer. In the Object Browser, however, the pointing hand
appears very small. At 640 x 480 resolution, the pointer barely resembles a
pointing hand; at higher resolutions, the pointer is even harder to
recognize.
It is not possible to change the shape of the pointer when it touches a
link in the Object Browser.
