custom cursors

Imre

I have a problem creating a custom cursor in windows forms.
I simply do:
Cursor c = new Cursor(@"c:\xyz.cur");
every cursor file i have tried, except the ones in the c:\windows\cursors directory give me an ArgumentException, stating that the file is not in the correct format. I have even tried using several cursor editors to make .cur files.
How do I get a cursor in the correct format for visual c# express?

I am not sure about cursor, but when i add an attractive 3D icon some time that type of message i got. then i open it an external editor & i found there is few valid icon type like 16x16, 32x32, 256x256 but one type is not valid a large number with no dimension. That type of icon not support in from.

So i think that type of problem you also get. please check it & compare it with valid cursor which is acceptable by from. this is only my suggestion. You check it.

Wish, you solve it.

Thank you!
