>>Hi Bruce,
>> I've had opportunity to do some experimenting with changing the cursor shape and I think I must be missing something. I successfully change to I-beam cursor shape to the arrow pointer, but I am not able to change it back. I ran Vlad's code and it also did not change the I-beam cursor back to an I-beam. Have you gotten this to work and am I missing something?

We haven't tried it anywhere else yet, since that's the only place we needed it so far...but it works with both restoring the I-beam and also an unusual cursor the hypothetical user might have instead of I-beam...

Are you restoring the cursor from a cursor file or from the registry default and are you using Vlad's code. My OS is WinNT, I don't think that would matter, but . . .?

Thanks,
