ERROR_CLASS_DOES_NOT_EXIST 1411 (0x583)

Hello, I''m trying to make a window, it worked fine, but now it dont.

I'm getting the error, I got it by using GetLAstError(), this is the code:

Code:

---

MapleActive = CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_LEFT,TEXT("static"), TEXT("MapleStory Status:"), WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | SS_LEFT ,150, 10, 140, 18,hWnd, 0, hInstance,NULL);

---

ERROR_CLASS_DOES_NOT_EXIST
1411 (0x583)

that error, how can i solve? O_o I'm not even using a class, and im sure it worked fine.

thanks.

The window class (the second parameter) you're trying to use does not exist. AFAIK the names of window classes are case-sensitive so what you want is

Code:

---

TEXT("STATIC")

---

instead.

Nop that isnt it, sometimes it does work others not, really werid.

This IS weird!
The window class either exists or not, but the behavior should be consistent.
Do you see it with the same window class? Always “static”?
