Custom hand cursor in Visual Basic?

Question

I am working on a my app and I managed to change the normal mouse cursor very easy using this code: Dim cur As Icon cur = (My.Resources.NewCursor) Me.Cursor = New Cursor(cur.Handle)` Now I'd like to change the default "Hand" Cursor to a new one but I can't manage to do it, it won't let me `New Cursors.Hand` or `Me.Cursors.Hand`, also on the internet I find only complicated methods and I know there is an easy one, I just can't find it.

Answer 1

To change the cursor to the hand simply assign it to the constant Cursors.Hand:

Me.Cursor = Cursors.Hand

There is no need to use the new keyword here.
