mouse pointer in excel combo box

[Shaun]

When using the combo boxin excel, when i click on the box to select options
from the draw down list, the pointer change to a hand icon ie like for an
internet link.

How do i change the hand sign to a normal arrow icon ?

I've tried changing this in control panel under mouse pointer but this only
change the icon for windows ie when i clink on an internet link. it does not
change the hand icon when i use the excel combo box

thanks
