Change the Text-insertion cursor appearance

I'm hoping someone could tell me how I would go about changing the appearance of the text-insertion cursor in Windows.
I need it to appear as it does exactly in Command Prompt, a horizontal block, or an underscore, if this is possible ?

Thanks

you can either download one or create one cursor of that sort...

Go to control panel.. and then open Mouse

A dialog box opens up and then go to pointers tab..

select your choice of cursor and click on browse to select your own type of cursor... and set it
