I was wrong, sorry. I couldn't find a way of showing al card fields.

But I do have another question for the HyperCard public (let's hear
it for a comp.lang.hypercard section! [no moderation plz. Do that in
a comp.lang.hypercard.binaries section ;)])

I added my own cursor to a stack (in fact, I ripped another program :)
and succeeded in bringing it on the screen with 'set cursor to 260' (260
being the id of this cursor). What I would like is that cursor being
shown when the user moves the mousepointer over an information button.
Like: 'if the mouseH > 28 and the mouseV > 36 and the mouseH < 121 and
the mouseV < 130 then set cursor to 260'. This works only partly, as
HyperCard steals the idle time in which I perform this operation. The
cursor is switched between the browse tool and my custom cursor.

Anyone any idea to prevent HyperCard from changing the cursor?
