I am not sure WHERE in VFP or HOW in VFP I can change the Ibeams outside of a form so that it takes affect on the _screen (as when running .sprs in VFP). I cannot use form properties to do this (well I can, but not exclusively) because some .sprs are running in this app too so I've been trying to change the text edit cursor using the windows api to no avail..

>>Hi Bruce,
>>I'm trying to change the shape and size of the text edit cursor in VFP. Basically, our users are complaining that the ibeam cursor is too difficult to see. If your code does this, can you share it? I have been trying and trying and trying to get loadcursor, loadimage, etc to work for what seems a lifetime now!

>Hi Tracy - The Ibeams can be altered using 99-Custom, and then selecting the Windows Ibeam you like best, but I'm sure you already know that.
