> pls give the definitions to set mouse ptr in c There are different ways to set the mouse pointer in C, depending on which operating system you're using. In MS-DOS, once a mouse driver was loaded, you would set certain 80x86 registers then call interrupt 33h. On most DOS compilers you could do this from within your C code by writing inline assembly code. Under Windows, and other operating systems, the situation is different. Instead of talking directly to the hardware, or calling interrupts, Microsoft provides an API [1] for communicating with all the hardware on the PC, including the mouse. You can read about how to set the mouse pointer style in Microsoft Windows on MSDN [2]. Their examples are written in C.
