    Posted: 27 January 2005 at 1:58am

I have some panes in my app, kind a looks like outlook.  Now when the user clicks and generates the wndReportControl_SelectionChanged event, I do something that takes some time.  Therefore, I set Screen.MousePointer = vbHourglass.  The mouse pointer however does not change.  I use doevents before and after changing the mouse but that does not help either.

I move the cursor to the caption of the main form and change selection using the keyboard, now I can see that mouse pointer changes to hourglass.

Summary: The mouse pointer does not change when the mouse is over CodeJock ActiveX controls.

How do I fix this?  Or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you, Omer

Futhermore, when the system is really busy an Hourglass mousepointer WILL appear...

Will the use of an windows API help? I haven't tried yet...

It has been 2 weeks since my post and I get no answer whatsoever from support.  Is this the price we pay on top of already expensive OCX controls?  Please advise about the mouse problem.

Thanks & regards,

Omer

Omer, have you tried logging an issue through IssueTrack? Even though the forums are monitored by CodeJock, they are not the primary method of providing support.

https://www.codejock.com/support/index.asp

This will allow you to open a support ticket... I've had pretty good luck getting support through there. Good luck.

I opened a log in IssueTrack and have told that it is windows DLL problem, not specific to the CodeJock software.  There are no solutions as of now.

"A windows DLL problem" hahahahaha  What a crock.

The mouse pointer problem has been going on for as long as I can remember.

It is hard coded inside the codejock controls to change the mousepointer to the default arrow whenever you move your mouse over the control.

You can test this by making an empty form. Add any of the vb controls you like as well as a codejock control eg the report grid. In the form_load sub put some code like Me.MousePointer = 12 to change the pointer to something else. Then run the code.
You will see that over the form and all the other controls the mouse pointer will be whatever you set it to (in this case the 12 cursor vbnodrop)  but when you move it over the grid the cursor reverts to the default arrow.

They dont even change it to a hand (pointer) when it is over one of their own hyperlinks (see popup control)

I would go back and ask again if I were you.
