[AccessD] Turn Mouse Pointer to Hand

Rick:

I was looking for that snip that changes the muse pointer into a hand.  I've 
got labels on the main form with OnClick events instead of command buttons 
(which are clunky looking).  I've also got a mouse move event for each one 
already which displays a bit of description of the label's function.

Now, in that mouse move event, I'd like to change the pointer to a hand as a 
visual cue that the label is a clickable link of some sort.  I'm gilding the 
lily here a bit, but it's a consumer product, not a commercial application, 
so it wants a bit of sizzle.

I did this before and it worked real well.  I just can't remember the app I 
built it into so I can't find it again.

Thanks and regards,

Rocky
