How do I hide the mousepointer?

    If you want to hide the mousepointer completely, use the Windows API ShowCursor. Declare it as:

    16-bit
    Declare Function ShowCursor Lib "User" (ByVal bShow As Integer) As Integer

    32-bit
    Declare Function ShowCursor Lib "user32" Alias "ShowCursor" (ByVal bShow As Long) As Long

    To hide the mousepointer, use: 
       result = ShowCursor(False)
    To show it again, use: 
       result = ShowCursor(True)
