Cursors and Mousepointer

[Geoff]

Hi
On a form I use this to indicate activity
Me.MousePointer = fmMousePointerCustom
Me.MouseIcon = LoadPicture(Application.Path & "\MSN.ico")
then reset using
Me.MousePointer = fmMousePointerDefault

How can Application.Cursor = xlWait be changed to show the same?

Take a look at this post on Daily Dose of Excel, which uses API calls
to change the cursor:

Thanks but the primary link is to change the mousepointer on a form, which I
can already do. The secondary links on the site are to do with existing
cursor shapes.

What I am seeking is to replace the xlWait cursor on a worksheet with an icon.

There are several sites out there for changing the cursor. Here is another:
