Title: SetCursorPos -- the right way
Question: SetCursorPos (x-coord, y-coord) won't work as it should! How then?
Answer:
I needed to put the cursor on placres on the form and on certain
controls I needed it to be. SetCuyrsorPos(15,67) etc. wouldn't do it.
This is a little demo-project that shows you how to use SetCurssorPos
