I have a managed C++ form app.
I'm trying to change to a custom cursor when a tool is
selected from a toolbar button. I've seen MANY references
that say to add the custom cursor in Solution
Explorer, then right-click and select properties, then
change "Build Action" to "Embedded Resource".
I existing cursors I wanted to use, so I copied them
to my project folder, within Solution Explorer I added
existing items. I now have "closehand.cur" and "openhand.cur"
in my solution under Resource Files. If I go to the properties
of these cursors I have:
-Misc
(Name) | closehand.cur
Content | False
File Type | Cursor
Full Path | (path here...)
Included In Project | True
Relative Path | .\closehand.cur
No "Build Actions".
I'm using VS2005. I'm kinda stumped what I've done
wrong. Even if I add a new cursor I have the same
properties.
Thanks,
Steven

I performed this same action in a C# app, and it did have
"Build Actions". So what next for a C++ app?
