Custom Cursor

How do I use an animated gif as my mouse icon? This will be used while a search is being performed, then switched back when the search is over...

Thanks!

Only *.ani files can be used as animated mouse pointer.

Why don't you simply set the cursor to the EggTimer ?

Like so...

VB Code:

'code
Form1.MousePointer = 11
'Some long thingmaybob loop

It is called HourGlass. ;)

Me.MousePointer = vbHourGlass

Shush you :p
Thanks ;)

Or, you could try 13 instead of 11.

Me.MousePointer = 13

Instead of writing numeric values, I prefer to write named constansts. They are easier to read. :)
