    Is it possible to modify the outline color of Excel cursor

    The cursor in excel is hard for me to see to locate where I am in the worksheet. Is there a way to change the color so it is more visible.

    I think for that you might need to modify windows themes settings which you can see in Control panel. There is a mouse option in which you can modify the cursor. In Excel there is no actual way of find that. You might need to run or find some kind of vba code which an show the way to change cursor.

    In vba it is possible to do that. The pointer in Microsoft Excel is predetermined om shapes or forms adopted. There are certain settings that you can try out. What you can use (code) is the property: application.cursor = <constant> where <constant> can be any of the following:
    Code:
     xlDefault => the default pointer 
     xlWait => hourglass pointer 
     xlNorthwestArrow => northwest arrow pointer 
     xlIBeam => pointer in R 
     xlnorthwestarrow test
    Tthis property remains until the restableces / modified or restart excel, but (NOTE :), and makes no distinction in the areas where the pointer wanders
