Default Changing shape of default pointer

How do I change the default pointer from a cross to an
arrow (or whatever else might be available)? My mouse
setting in control panel is for default arrow pointer,
which appears in other applications.

Thanks,

Michael

Hi Michael

See the VBA help for

Application.Cursor = xlWait
For the hourglass

Application.Cursor = xlDefault
To set it back to normal

I do not know the operating system you have, but click on start and then click on control panel, then click on your mouse controller selection, click pointers and selct the one you would like and click APPLY and then close - this should work
