In the Control Panel, click on Keyboard. Cursor speed is controlled using the Speed tab. For fastest response, set Repeat Delay to Short and set Repeat rate to Fast. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "haywired" <haywired[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:50DEA514-5C31-436F-86EA-4D20D1711384[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: how do I increase the cursor speed in Word 2007? haywired 12/9/2008 1:18:09 AM Thanks. I already tried that, but only in Word do I experience a sluggish cursor. The other apps are ok.

Re: how do I increase the cursor speed in Word 2007? "Herb Tyson [MVP]" <herb[ at ]1x2y3z.xnw> 12/9/2008 1:03:40 PM There is no independent cursor control for Word 2007. If it's sluggish, that would be a sign that something else is eating up the CPU. You might look at the task manager and see what's gobbling up CPU cycles. In my experience, if you don't have at least 4GB of ram, Office 2007 is going to be sluggish. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "haywired" <haywired[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:AE2D74DD-4A1C-4D92-8E03-3EFD83BDB71E[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: how do I increase the cursor speed in Word 2007? gochief 12/18/2008 7:56:01 PM There's a serious problem with cursor slowdown when Track Changes is turned on and the ribbon is up. See the posts on this by searching the knowledge base for "Slow". "haywired" wrote: [Quoted Text] > Thanks. I already tried that, but only in Word do I experience a sluggish > cursor.
