Forcing mouse pointer to update?

I've used this code to change the mouse pointer to an hourglass:

SetClassLong_(WindowID(),#GCL_HCURSOR,LoadCursor_(0,#IDC_WAIT))

But on my old 486 laptop it doesn't "update" the pointer when using this
before going into a long loop. I've tried sticking a WindowEvent() between
it and the loop, but it didn't help. Any ideas on how to force it to update?
