How do you change your cursor on screen, and how do you change the icon for the exe?

well, Rich tell me this: if the icon is 32x32 pixel, 24bit color, in bmp format, upload icon with the window "settings, file, icon,cursor...", and dbpro will associate it.The icon file must be in your project folder.

See to mouse command (i remember like "set mouse...") for pointer.

I have to told you never works with me (maybe associate an icon is too complicated for dbpro, or i'm very silly)

On the bottom right there should be 2 buttons that say 'Cursors' and 'Icons'. click on Cursors, and click 'add', then find your cursor, then click ok. do the same for the icon. they should automaticly set themselves in your program. they did for me.

get a sprite you want to use as the cursor then hide the mouse. everytime during the game loop you would put the sprite on the screen at the mouse coordinates...I don't know if this is how you would do it in darkbasic but that's how it's done in good ole' qbasic
