Solution 1

When the control is created change the property of Cursor.
As input to a Cursor class you can use a string path to a cursor file.

C#

Cursor = new Cursor("cursor.cur");

The picture can be any picture for example jpeg, however it needs to bee small. I used a 10px times 10px picuture

It seems that you can't set "jpg" file as cursor, but You can use any *.ico (Icon) file to set different picture to mouse pointer: Cursor red_horizontal_ico; red_horizontal_ico = new Cursor("Graphics\\Linkage red icon horizontal.ico"); try link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/4w858ek0(v=vs.80).aspx
