Changing the mouse pointer shape

[CHTHOMAS]

Hi,<br><br>Any one knows how to change the mouse pointer to a new shape when it moves over a command button in Access. I did manage to get the API code from Dev Ashish's site, but not sure how to use it. Also found an article on Mouspointer property in help menu. I checked the properties of the command button and form , but could not find any such property.<br><br>Any help or suggestion or&nbsp;&nbsp;sample db will be highly appreciated.<br><br><br>Thanks and Regards<br><br>Charley<br><A HREF="mailto:chthomas@tebodinme.co.ae">chthomas@tebodinme.co.ae</A><br>

If it can be done you have to do it in the &quot;MouseMove&quot; event of the item.<br>And probalby get the X and Y coordinates of the mouse to tuen change it at specific locations on the form or item.<br><br>I've done in Visual Basic but it has a &quot;MousePointer&quot; property that allows you to change it.<br>Access does not have that property.<br><br>What are you wanting to do maybe the is a different <br>workaround? <p>DougP<br><a href=mailto: dposton@universal1.com> dposton@universal1.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br> Ask me how Bar-codes can help you be more productive.
