TextBox data as a hyperlink - problem with hand cursor
Hi
I have a textbox on a continuous form tied to a field that is not a hyperlink in the underlying table. I have set the hyperlink property of the text box to Yes so that the text appears as a hyperlink. On clicking the data in this field, another form is brought up with the details of the record. Everything is working fine except I am unable to change the cursor to a hand when the user clicks this form. I do not have a hand icon and due to company policies I cannot download and use a hand icon. Any help in resolving this issue is greatly appreciated. TIA |

TextBox data as a hyperlink - problem with hand cursor
I find it very hard to believe with Windows installed that you don't have a
hand cursor. Note that you first say "hand cursor" then later say "hand icon. " They are not the same! C:\Windows\cursors should bring you all the cursors you need. Note that some "hand" cursors are named h_arrow short for hand arrow. -- There's ALWAYS more than one way to skin a cat!

TextBox data as a hyperlink - problem with hand cursor
I am sorry for not being clear. What I meant was that in the mouse pointer
property in MSAccess, there is no way to set the mouse pointer to a hand. One of the earlier posts in this forum referred to a solution provided on mvps.org (http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0044.htm) that made the assumption that the user had a hand icon on his/her desktop. While typing the post up, I did not realize that I had missed mentioning that I had looked at the above solution. I appreciate you taking the time to answer my post.
