Change mousepointer so it looks like a link

[GMcFly]

Hi, I was wondering how I could change the mousepointer so it looks like the cursor which appears when the mouse moves over a link (the little hand). Thanks for your help

If your link is in a Textbox or in a Label
you can set the property mouseicon with your hand icon (.ico) and the property mousepointer = 99.


Good luck

That would mean I'd have to use a cursor which I put somewhere or is somewhere in the windows directory right? If so how would I know what directory to look in for the different versions of Windows?

No you don't need to know which directory !!!

When you build your application (in VB), you set a cursor (.ico) to the property mouseicon. Then this cursor will be INCLUDE in your EXE application, then you don't need to specify the path of the cursor again, the EXE do it for you, and you don't need to distribute this cursor, it is INCLUDED.....

Need more help ?
