Works like a charm (thanks) except for one thing.  The cursor won't change
until the mouse moves.  My guess is that it only does it on a Mouse event
of some kind.  How can I throw that mouse event?  (My fear is that someone
will take their hand of the mouse, waiting for the wait cursor to go away
which it never will).  Not a big deal, but it's all in the details....

I haven't found if cursor can be changed anywhere other than component,
but that suits my needs; when people point to something other than the
component, they should be able to play with that the computer churns away
in the background.
