I would like to load a cursor after a push-button is clicked.
Here is my code.
Is there a simple function I have overlooked?Code:HCURSOR corroded; ...................... case IDC_LOAD_CURSOR: corroded=LoadCursor ( hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_CURSOR1)); SetCursor(corroded); return TRUE; .............................
Ok... you have a cursor in your resources, coupled to IDI_CURSOR1... hInst is the HINSTANCE of your program?
It should work.
What errors are you getting?
What is the value of corroded after the call... If LoadCursor() fails it will return NULL, so you should probably test for that before calling SetCursor().
When I run the program, the cursor is supposed to change to 'corroded' when I click the push button. When the program is run, though, all it does is nothing. The cursor still is the default cursor.

Ok... are you getting compiler errors? what are they?
Have you checked if the button actually fires the case event? (hint: Put a Beep(500,100); in there so you can hear it fire.)
Have you checked the return value of LoadCursor() to see if it's actually loading the cursor?
Have you checked the return value of SetCursor() to see if it's actually trying to set the cursor?
Really... "WHAT???" ... just doesn't cut it here...
