Mouse Object Question

This is just a simple problem I know, but I am trying to replace the cursor mouse with one I created. Can someone tell me what I need to do to achieve this? thanks.

Have an always event that sets your image x coordinate to XMouse and y coordinate to YMouse, and hide the windows cursor. :)

Thanks I will try that.

I did something else but I get a box around my arrow. What I did was. I added the cursor object and edited that and put in the image I wanted. I still wasn't getting anything. So I went into the event editor and put in the following.

Mouse pointer lays within zone (0,0)to(800,600) Then under the cursor object I chose image from name and typed in "mouse".
That finally worked too, but it gives me that blue box around my arrow. Anyway to remove that?

I am still going to try your way as well.

StevenL's way is the best way, IMHO.

Is the cursor object of any use in this scenario?

You can set the cursor to the name of an Active object so the cursor takes on the image of that object, or simply use the cursor object to display its own custom image.

I think with the Cursor Object you loose clicking on object capability. Of course my brain leakage may be causing me to make false statements with regard to this.

Just tried it and it works great!! Thanks again. I appreciate your guys help.
