Custom cursors can be set using "set the cursor of sprite"
property. Director also now has a cursor asset: go to Insert | Media
Element | Cursor...
There are some limitations regarding size, etc. Another alternative is to
roll your own, by hiding the cursor and then moving a sprite around in
response to the mouse movement.
For students, though, I often suggest that you will learn best by using
either the online help or your reference book and looking up
"cursors". Your most important ability in programming will not be so much
what you know, but what you are capable of finding out on your own, and
learning to fend for yourself.
