Forgot to log in and now I cannot make any changes - admin: please delete the post above!
Anyway, the question is:
Why is the cursor reset to crDefault when I call the Zip method?
The actualy code looks like this:
self.Enabled := False;
try
Screen.Cursor := crHourglass;
try
.. (set ZipName
.. and add files to FilesList)
VCLZip.Zip; //Cursor reset to crDefault here
finally
Screen.Cursor := crDefault;
end;
finally
self.Enabled := True;
end;

What **** forum software is this? I'm 100% sure I did log in when I posted the second message (before I posted I updated the profile and changed the password), yet it was posted as "Guest".

Hi,
Sorry about the logging in problem. I haven't seen that one, but will keep an eye on that too. I'll switch over to another forum host if things get problematic.
OK, about the cursor: Are you using the VCLZip Pro eval, or are you using a VCLZip 2.X (Lite) version? And, which version of Delphi/BCB are you using?
Thanks,
Kevin

Do you have any events defined that might be turning it back to the default? Also, is this the 2.23 registered version or evaluation version? Should have asked that the first time.  |

Do you have any events defined that might be turning it back to the default? Nope. Registered. After some more testing I found out that setting the Enabled property of the form to False is causing this. Is there another way of preventing the user from accessing the form while the files are being zipped? |

Thre is a VCLZip.busy property you can check to see if an operation is still going or you could set your own flag and check it in your button/menu events to disable them. Other than that, I'm not sure of another way off the top of my head.
