Change curser

[Parkroyal]

Anyone know how to change the mouse curser when it travels over a button on a form?

As far as I know, if you use the button from the Access toolbox, you can't. If you go to insert/ActiveX Control and select the Microsoft Forms 2.0 CommandButton, there is a property in the other tab that will allow you to set the mouse pointer. It may be different on your version. I am using MSAccess 2002.

I'll try that. I am using 2002 as well.

Here is an option from Peter De Baets that may give you what you are looking for -

"Hyperlink Instead of Command Button" is an example database that shows how to use the MS Access hyperlink label control like a command button. Using this example, you can take advantage of all the web-page-like features of the hyperlink label control (mouse cursor changes to pointing finger, blue hyperlink color, etc) to do regular MS Access tasks like opening forms, reports, or running functions and/or subroutines.
