Hi Steve,

>In my case it only happened after opening a form. For instance, my user clicks ok at the logon, an hourglass appears, then goes away after logging on, ( you cant see this though, it happens too fast) then a form is opened, an hourglass displays and never goes away.

I have this problem as well.


>So the persistent hourglass is being created by the first form load after a logon.

I worked around the issue by adding:

DODEFAULT()
_screen.MousePointer=0
to my frmformcustom.backgroundrefresh

I will definately give this a try. Just curious, how in the world did you figure this out? (could it be that Lexington Style BBQ.... hmmmmm... I had Mr. Barbecue in W-S yesterday).
