Especially note :
If your application must set the cursor while it is in a window, make sure
the class cursor for the specified window's class is set to NULL. If the
class cursor is not NULL, the system restores the class cursor each time the
mouse is moved.
The cursor is not shown on the screen if the internal cursor display count
is less than zero. This occurs if the application uses the
<http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/psdk/winui/cursors_1gky.htm> ShowCursor
function to hide the cursor more times than to show the cursor.

Subject: Re: [Dev-C++] Change the cursor...
Hi, I would like to know how to change the cursor in a simple dialog box
based program. I know that I must use SetCursor( ) and LoadCursor( ) and
ShowCursor, but I can't seem to get it working. I put this in the dialog
box's initinstance:
SetCursor( LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_WAIT) );
ShowCursor(TRUE);
But it doesn't work, the wait curor doesn't show up. Can any one help
me? Thank you in advance.
I'm not using C++, but in C i have a message WM_SETCURSOR sent to my dialog
procedure, maybe this is what you need ? Just put your code as response to
that message and the cursor changes...
