Hello all,

I use a DLL for which I have no source code. I call a function in it
that seems to call SetCursor to turn the cursor into the hourglass.
Is there anyway I can suppress this SetCursor, or at least make the
hourglass not appear?

Thanks.

The cursor can be normally changed on WM_SETCURSOR

The problem it that the DLL itself changes it back to the default
cursor. So if the
calll is made during WM_MOUSEMOVE , the cursor flickers. I want to
avoid this flicker
by making the DLLs calls to SetCursor ineffective.

Use SetCapture()
