I use word 2000, for amongst other things, drawing basic electrical schematics and the like. ( i know i should be using cad but it boggles me).

is there a way of creating a bigger drawing crosshair, i.e. full screen/window.
I have tried things like icon/image forge etc in the past, but the biggest cursor i could create was 64x64 pixels, which is not much bigger than i already have.

thanks,

mj.

Change the mouse cursor 'Precision select' pointer in control panel to something you've made, maybe Word will use this.

MJ,

CAD shouldn't boggle anyone just get someone to spend 1/2hr showing you the basics.

Alternatively if you just want schematics try Visio.

I'd also say take a look at Visio (that is now Microsoft Visio ), as it works a treat can comes with quite a few stencils for EE jobs.
