[AccessD] Custom mouse cursor

I need a custom mouse cursor at one point in my A2K application running on Win2K. I am trying to set the cursor using the LoadCursorFromFile api call in the click event of a command button. It does load the cursor, but it is instantly reset to the default cursor.

I can force the issue by calling LoadCursorFromFile in the MouseMove event. However this results in, of course, poor performance and horrible flickering. I tried this more as an experiment, it's unworkable as a solution.

Does anyone know how to make this work, or have another solution to using a custom mouse cursor?
