SetParent Function causing Overflow (Error 6) in NT?

I'm using this Function in my program

Declare Function SetParent Lib "user32" (byval hWndChild as Long, byval hWndNewParent as Long) as Long



This is how it is called.

r% = SetParent(MCOption1(Index).hwnd, MCPanel
(Index).hwnd)



But, when I run the program in NT, I get an Overflow!(error 6) on any screen that has an MCOption control.

Any ideas on why it would work fine in Win 95/98, but not NT?

Just a thought, but could it be because :


r% = SetParent(MCOption1(Index).hwnd, MCPanel(Index).hwnd)




means that 'r%' is an integer and the SetParent call returns a long ?

You are using Option Explicit aren't you ?
