    Cursor


    Not sure if this is a bug just within my database, or something anyone has experienced, but the cursor is behaving strangly - it will flash as normal for about 5 seconds then stops flashing and just stays solid. Within unlocked textboxes, rather than aligning to the left, it moves in maybe 10 spaces - not sure if this is reacting to some code behind the scenes, or what.. it's not overly annoying, but it would be nice to know if anyone else has had this and if there is a solution.

    Thanks in advance.

    My first thought is a timer event running on a form that's open. I'm not sure I've seen that exact behavior, but a timer event can cause odd things like that.

    No problem, and welcome to the site. Post back if that doesn't appear to be the problem, perhaps with the timer code.
