additional mouse pointers

[carpeneda]

Hi
I have found some different mouse pointers in the screen.mousepointer object. Is there any possibility to extend the choice of mousepointers, because there are just some few?
Thank you for any idea.

As far As I now, you can use any cursor file (.cur) file as a mouse pointer.

*** you will have to scroll down to find it

Using VBA in Access, apart from the Hand cursor for a Hyperlink control and using the Hourglass method of the DoCmd object, you can only use the MousePointer property of the Screen object to specify a mouse-pointer, with the cursor types limited to:

* Default Arrow
* Text Select (I-Beam)
* Vertical Resize (Size N, S)
* Horizontal Resize (Size E, W)
* Busy (Hourglass)

However, there are two API calls that allow you to use your own custom cursors or Windows system cursors in your Access applications. You can even use animated cursors.
