How to load a cursor?

[zulfi1234]

I have created an icon using the bitmap editor. How I can load the icon as the cursor? I am doing the<br>&nbsp;following things in my dialog's implementation file:<br><br>&nbsp;m_Cursor=3;<br>&nbsp;hCursor = AfxGetApp()-&gt;LoadCursor(IDI_ICON3);<br>&nbsp;::SetCursor(hCursor);<br><br>&nbsp;And in my dialog's header file I have declared<br>&nbsp;HCURSOR hCursor;<br><br>&nbsp;Zulfi.

Dear Zulfi,<br><br>Windows sends a WM_SETCURSOR. The default MFC handler sets the cursor to the default cursor registered to the window. To set the cursor you can register it to the window, or override the MFC WM_SETCURSOR handler through the virtual function CWnd::OnSetCursor(). In your override you can call SetCursor() to display your custom cursor.<br><br>Hope this helps<br>-pete

I want to change the cursor when I click the radio button on my dlg. The cursor should be changed to an icon. Should I call OnSetCursor ( ) through my radio button handler??<br><br>Zulfi

Zulfi,<br><br>I've never done what you are describing, but I would try SendMessage(WM_SETCURSOR, 0, 0L)<br><br>-pete
