    Lightbulb Cursor Compass thingy...

    Hi All,

    I read several posts about people asking how to get the cursor’s position. So, I wondered if I could create a program that would draw an arrow pointing towards the cursor. ( Sort of like a compass. )

    Well, after a bit of sorting thru old projects and searching the web for a little help with the math, I made a neat and useless program. “Cursor Compass” Just one of those “I made it just to see if I could” things.

    Attached is a zip with the VB 6 project files.

    I decided to post it to get some feedback, but I also think that it could help people who are new to VB.

    It uses the following API Functions.

    GetCursorPos(...) and GetWindowRect(...)

    It also has code to find the following:

    The distance between 2 points and the angle based on 2 points

    Let me know what you think.
