Is it possible to change the mouse pointer to an hourglass while a process is running? If so please help. Thanks.

Clay,
Follow Richard's suggestion.
And be aware that if your process brings up a dialog or message box, the cursor will revert to the normal arrow when the user closes the box and the process continues. So put extra copies of that Utility( "CURSOR", "H" ) statement after your Dialog_Box and Msg calls.

Ahhhh I forgot about that. Since the statement…
RESET_CURSOR=UTILITY('CURSOR','H')
does set the variable RESET_CURSOR to the "before" cursor setting, maybe the dialog box and msg functions could be fixed to include something like using the statement…
RESULT=UTILITY('CURSOR',RESET_CURSOR)
hmmmmm???
