See Nintedo Wii technology.....

Seriously though if it were as easy as "some source code" I don't think the Wii would be nearly as expensive.

Also in order to make that happen you would need to have image recognition software that would allow the webcam to read the movements of your finger as overlayed on a grid, all this I would imagine is pretty complex stuff that requires 3rd party hardware and\or software outside of VB.

There is no code to do what you are asking because there is no such thing as a finger pointing mouse.
If you make one, you'll need to connect it to your PC. Depending on how you connect it, (USB, SERIAL, PCI), you'll need to write code to interface with the device and that's all computer engineering stuff.

I think you would probably need a low-level driver which interprets the hand movements. Most likely you VB code would simply see the results as a mouse movement, so no special code would be necessary.

This is quite speculative, though.

With the following code I can change the mouse pointer. However, if you click in Mozilla (with IE it works perfect) on 'Show hourglass' the mouse pointer changes only if you move the mouse at least on pixel. <html> <body> <script type = 'text/javascript'> function show_hourglass() { document.getElementById("my_href1").style.cursor = "wait"; document.getElementById("my_href2").style.cursor = "wait";
