Specifying pointers for a DataWindow object

Just as with colors, you can specify different pointers to use when the mouse is over a particular area of the DataWindow object. For example, you might want to change the pointer when the mouse is over a column whose data cannot be changed.

StepsTo change the mouse pointer used at runtime:

  1. Position the mouse over the element of the DataWindow object whose pointer you want to define, display the pop-up menu, and select Properties to display the appropriate Properties view.

    You can set a pointer for the entire DataWindow object, specific bands, and specific controls.

  2. Select the Pointer tab.

  3. Either choose the pointer from the Stock Pointers list.

    You can use the Browse button to search for the file.

  4. Click OK.
