Cursor wait, hide or show

I am developing a program using VB.net. It's a web based program that use web controls. When the system
display a checkboxlist, I immedately try to put up a popup screen. The problem is before the popup is complete
the user can or may try to select more that a single selection. Is there a way to hide and then show the cursor.
I tried disabling the list, still too slow. Tried wait nothing happened after the wait.

Hi Mikee,

You can't hide the cursor through code, but what you could try doing is
wrapping your checkboxlist in a Div with the style set to visibility=hidd en.
Then, after your popup, use javascript to change the visibility to visible.
That wont take any download time, as it's already downloaded.

I have a form which performs some asynchronous code. I want to display a wait cursor when it starts, and hide the wait cursor when it has completed. This part works fairly well, using: this.TopLevelControl.Cursor = System.Windows.Forms.Cursors.WaitCursor; I also want to prevent user interaction with the controls on my form while the wait cursor is displayed, so that use events (except resize and cancel) are blocked. What is the...

I have a mdi app. I need to change the cursor when I click on certain button on a form that I made into a toolbar. I tried to use cursor.current. But the cursor won't show. if I change the form cursor it will work over the form. I need it to stay with the same cursor over all objects. Any ideas of what I am doing wrong here? TIA

I use the RichTextBox and sometimes put it into overwrite mode. I'd like the cursor to show whether its in overwrite or insert mode. I often use Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor and therefore need to change the cursor to show the overwrite/insert mode in such a way that when the Cursor.Current is reset after the need for the wait cursor ends, the cursor resets to the overwrite cursor or insert cursor as appropriate.

This is the only solution I've found to get a wait cursor document-wide: function Busy() { if (document.all) for (var i=0;i < document.all.length; i++) document.all(i).style.cursor = 'wait'; } Sadly, for pages with a lot of elements, its performance is not acceptable.

1) Me.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor This works - except when you hover the mouse over a textbox or datagridview control, it doesnt show the waitcursor. 2) Me.UseWaitCursor = True This works if i set it off a button click. It does not work if i set it as part of a process, which is extremely odd. One would suspect that would be because im unsetting it somewhere in the process, but to eliminate this possibility, i did a replace and changed...
