I created a form that is designed to be executed in the window-ized 'reading view' of PPT. The form has controls to go forward and backwards across the range of slides. The form serves as an interface to tag each slide with meta-tagging info stored as a code on the first line of the slide notes section.

When I get towards the ending slides, the cursor disappears. The form buttons seem to respond to touch (I have a touchscreen laptop) and the cursor seems to still trigger events but it turns invisible within the PPT and VBA code windows. What could be causing this? If I move the form away from overlapping the primary PPT window before moving around in the slide sequence, the cursor does not disappear.
