Works fine in IDL 5.4 and 5.5, and Windows 2000.

Thanks for trying it. I tried this code on several system and on all of
them, the cursor is constantly toggling between a face and the standard
arrow pointer as the cursor is moved. Please everybody, try it and tell
me what you see.
I look forward to get your reports :-)
Thanks
Thomas
