Screen.MousePointer Doesn't Work

[gharabed]

Setting the cursor to busy via the Screen.MousePointer=vbHourGlass doesn't seem to work in VBA. I've used it in strict VB code and it works fine. What's going on?

If you're trying to run the hourglass in MS Access (even with VBA) then change the value...vbDefault & vbHourglass are not recognised.

Instead use:
Screen.Mouspointer = 0 (which is vbDefault)
Screen.Mousepointer = 11 (which is the hourglass)

Of course you can use
DoCmd.HourGlass True & DoCmd.Hourglass False

Hope this helps
