Hi guys!

I'd like to ask for your help.

I'd like to change the cursor during query execution.
For this I use:
and also include IBDacVCL in my uses list.

The problem: The connection dialog gets shown. Is there a way to skip the dialog from showing?

My other question:
Is there a way to change the cursor to a custom bitmap instead of the default SQL hourglass?

Thank you!

You should set LoginPrompt property of TIBCConnection to False so that the connect dialog would not appear.

IBDAC does not have a feature of setting your custom wait cursor.

Thanks for pointing me to the loginprompt property. For some reason I thought I switched it to false but it was true.

As for my second question, let me answer it:

Screen.Cursors[crSQLWait] := Screen.Cursors[crHourglass];

will change the SQL cursor to an hourglass, while

Screen.Cursors[crSQLWait] := LoadCursor(HInstance,'CURSOR_RES');

will change the SQL cursor to a custom resource named CURSOR_RES!

Thanks!
