If the normal one comes up, <you will know that the application has its own. I changed my I beam into two <triangles, one pointing down, and one pointing up, with the hot spot right in <the middle. In case you are wondering where the arrow is, it is in the ROMs. <(Remember, it comes up when you first turn the Mac on.) < <Mark Cookson However, it should be noted that the arrow cursor CAN be patched in RAM. The INIT ColorCursor replaces the standard black arrow with one filled with the same rainbow of colors that fills the apple over the DA menu. Does anyone know exactly how this is done? -- Mark H.
