  Where do you set the cursor and how it should work (in preview window?)

  I use Query in my report where I have special SELECT statements.
  So I have first window in my report where I ask user to set parameters, then when user clicks on OK I open my Query with parameters and try to preview report. But it takes a while, so I need SQLWait cursor in this time.

  FR does not change the Screen.Cursor property, only controls' Cursor property. I don't know why Screen.Cursor is changed.

  Well but in FR 2 it worked. I could use
  screen.cursor:=-17;
  query.close;
  query.sql.clear;
  query.sql.add('...');
  query.open;
  screen.cursor:=0;
  
  than user knew that program works (when select statement need for example 8 seconds).
  In FR3 this doesn't work.
