Hi Netters,

is there anyone out there who might help me ?

Ok, here is the problem :
I want to change the standard mouse cursor, this silly arrow, to something 
more pretty (you can guess, a mouse :-) ). I know that I can change the mouse 
cursor in editing the corresponding *.exe-file with my ResEditor, but I want 
to avoid changing MSW files.

Ther must be a software solution, something like changing the handle of the 
cursor to some selfdefined bitmap.

I also know how to change the cursor in my own applications, but this seems
to be a different job, as I've to change the cursor without having th code.

Any ideas ?
If any, please respond via EMail, as I usually don't look very closely to this
group...

Mary X. Mas is happily going to New York ...
