OK I have inserted the sample code into a module and tried to change the mouse pointer using one of the constants. Nothing happens. Stepping through the code Public Const IDC_CROSS = 32515& Declare Function LoadCursorBynum Lib "user32" Alias "LoadCursorA" _ (ByVal hInstance As Long, ByVal lpCursorName As Long) As Long Declare Function SetCursor Lib "user32" _ (ByVal hCursor As Long) As Long Function MouseCursor(CursorType As Long) Dim lngRet As Long lngRet = LoadCursorBynum(0&, CursorType) lngRet = SetCursor(lngRet) End Function having called it as so -> MouseCursor(IDC_CROSS), with a watch on lngRet I'm finding that the value of lngRet = 0 at all times. I'm inept at API to say the least - what am I missing here?

I want to use the mouse to indicate a drill-down field and none of the mouse settings listed in the VB help file (normal, hourglass, insert, resize) are suitable.
