SYMPTOMS
========
 
If you place your cursor over the field name in a Works database or over
the Entry bar in a spreadsheet document, your cursor may turn into a watch
instead of a hand (in a database) or the I-beam (in a spreadsheet).
 
This problem occurs while using Apple LaserWriter driver 8.0.
 
RESOLUTION
==========
 
To resolve this issue, enter the Page Setup dialog box and press OK to
exit it. Your cursor will now be displayed correctly.
 
The cursor will continue to display correctly until you exit Works.
When you start a new session, you must enter the Page Setup dialog box
again to display correct cursors.
 
MORE INFORMATION
================
 
These display problems do not occur with LaserWriter drivers 7.x or 8.1.1.
