Mouse/Pointer from Arrow/Default to Busy/HourGlass on Long Running Process

435076Apr 7 2007 — edited May 3 2007

I have several successive long running "On Submit - After Computations and Validations" Processes. While these processes are running, my Mouse / Pointer remains looking like the default pointer, when I would like it to change to the hourglass (Hour Glass).

<br><br>How do I go about doing this?

<br><br>Can I do this at the application level (so that all long running processes change to the hour glass) or can I create a process that runs before my several successive long running process to turn the pointer to an hour glass, and then add another process that runs at the end, to change the pointer back. And are these the commands I need to execute:<br><br>

  Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'Default');
  Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'Busy');
  Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'Crosshair');
  Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'Help');
  Set_Application_Property(Cursor_Style,'Insertion');

<br>

Is this something that can be done in Apex (Application Express - HTML.DB) or only in Oracle Forms?
