IBO giveth, it doth not take away! <g>

Drop a TIB_SessionProps on your form or datamodule and set the properties
UseCursor (boolean, default false), BusyCursor (defaults to crHourglass but
you can choose) and YieldCursor (defaults to the standard Windows
yieldcursor, an hourglass with an arrow). You even get to choose which
"busy" cursors your user will see.
