SYMPTOMS
The mouse pointer changes to the default pointer when hovering over a text box border regardless of the mouse pointer setting on the form and text box.



RESOLUTION
Placing NODEFAULT in the MouseMove event of the text box keeps the mouse pointer from changing.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.



Steps to Reproduce Behavior
  Copy the following code into a program file (.prg) and run it: PUBLIC oForm oForm=CREATEOBJECT("Form") WITH oForm .ADDOBJECT("Text1","textbox") .text1.VISIBLE = .T. .SETALL('MousePointer',11) .MOUSEPOINTER = 11 .SHOW ENDWITH RETURN  Slowly hover the mouse pointer over the border of the text box. Notice that the mouse pointer changes from an hourglass to the default arrow pointer.
