Changing the system cursor

[tg2003]

Hello all,

I have a vb.net 2008 app that starts with "sub main()", and then it opens a form.

I want to change the mouse cursor (to wait cursor) just as the sub main starts. Currently I can change the mouse cursor just when the form is start loading (Me.cursor), but it's too late...

How can I do it?

Thanks in advance!

You might look at the Application.StartUp event.

You can access this by Right-Clicking your project name and selecting Properties. On the Application tab is an Application Events button. There is a cooment at the top describing which events you can use. A web search should help with syntax if you need it....

Thanks, I didn't know about it.

I try it, but I can't find a method to change the cursor...

I also found that the cursor class was not available in the Startup event. I have not found anything yet to make it work as you would like.... Still searching though.
