Cursor Dropshadow in Windows 2000 & C#

[Pete Maxwell]

I know this is a small problem but can anyone answer this:

In .net (I'm using c#) when I set the cursor on a control to the "hand" the
pointer shadowing feature of windows 2000 doesn't display that cursor
properly. Yet other cursors such as the "arrow" or "hourglass" do work
fine. Additionally the same(?) hand cursor works fine within internet
explorer (both as a separate window as well as embedded in a form using
interop)

Thanks,

Pete

I am able to repro that on Windows XP too. Seems to be a "bug".

I think the Cursor class has "issues" on .NET

The cursor ctor cannot somtimes find cursor resources.
