Change cursor state in Powerpoint Addin

[DavidH&P]

Hi,
I'm using PowerPoint 2007 and VSTO 2005 SE.
I would like to change the cursor state from my code.

Is it possible ?

In forms, yes, but for the application, not that I know of.

The Win API may provide some way of setting the cursor for a particular window
though. That'd be worth looking into.

You pointed me to an other solution, and I just use that now:

try
{
Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor;

//my code
}
finally
{
Cursor.Current = Cursors.Default;
}

thanks for your idea !

Nice ... I should have figured it'd be part of the .Net framework.
