I am writing an audio editor for Microsoft Windows.  For each audio window
there are two "cursors".  I want to be able to click on each cursor and then
drag it around (in similar style to a scroll bar dragging).

I am using Microsoft C and the SDK but hope to change to Borland C++ once it is
available in New Zealand.

I was wondering how to tackle these "cursors".  Is it best to create a new type
of resource or best to draw a graphic item on and watch the mouse messages or
should I make it a (very small) window??

Any help would be very much appreciated.
