No, this VFP5. In VFP3 probably you can use something similar to what I have in the 2 FAQ (here on UT) about mouse pointers. Ie: use LoadCursor(), LoadCursorFromFile() etc WIn32 API functions. Although, I don't think it worth it unless you have this in specification. If it's just for a fancy effect on user... be sure you're paid to do it cause you must take care of a lot of events.
