David,

I have found that you have to set .MousePointer for all active controls:
here's a routine I have used in MDI applications.

Public Sub DoMousePointer(p)
Dim f As Form
    For Each f In Forms
        f.MousePointer = p
    Next f
End Sub

You could always add something like
dim c as control
	for each c in f.controls
		c.mousepointer = vbHourGlass
	next c
(I haven't tested this last bit: you may have to modify it if there
are controls that don't have a MousePointer property.  Maybe just
On Error Resume Next
would do the trick?!)
