CURSOR
Description:
The CURSOR command makes it easy to change the mouse pointer to be one of 5 predefined shapes.
NORMAL= the default pointer
ARROW= the standard Windows arrow
CROSSHAIR= a + shaped pointer
HOURGLASS= the Windows hourglass
TEXT= the text insertion I-beam
Example:
cursor hourglass
for i = 1 to n
'perform some work
next i
cursor normal
The program's code is responsible for setting the cursor back to the default (normal) when appropriate. If a runtime error halts a program, the cursor will automatically revert to normal.
