Changing pointer shape in Windows

[Rick Mohr]

Emacs 21 used the "arrow" pointer everywhere, but Emacs 22 uses the "I-beam" 
pointer over text. How can I get Emacs 22 to use the "arrow" pointer over text?

This doesn't seem to work:

(setq x-pointer-shape 132) ; top_left_arrow
(set-mouse-color "white")

I want to use the arrow pointer because (1) I'm used to it, and (2) the I-beam 
pointer behaves differently than in other windows applications. In Emacs, 
clicking on any part of a character places the cursor before that character. In 
other windows applications, clicking on the left half of a character places the 
cursor before that character but clicking on the right half of a character 
places the cursor after that character.

Any help appreciated. Thanks,
