I am running Windows Vista Home Premium and Office 2003.

I entered the mouse settings in the Control Panel and clicked the "Hide pointer while typing" square. But the pointers do not hide in my Excel 2003. When I am typing in a cell, unless I remember to move the fat plus sign out every time I type, it obscures what is behind it.

Any ideas how to activate a "hide pointer while typing" option in Excel 2003?
