PtInRect return value always zero....

Hello,

I need help with this, it doesnt seem to work at all...

</snip>

c_proc(xGetCursorPos, {pt} ) 

junk = c_func(xScreenToClient, {hwnd, pt}) 

c_proc(xGetWindowRect, {cntrl_id, rect} 

junk = c_func(xPtInRect, {rect, pt}) 

<snip\>

First I retrieve the CursorPos and convert this to ClientCoords
next, I retrieve the WindowRect which sets (rect) the coords to 
ctrl_id and test to see if the ClientCoord (pt) resides within 
WindowRect (rect) with xPtInRect..

Very Simple and should work according to MS.... ;-0

hwnd and ctrl_id's handle, rect and pt address's are aquired already
and, are valid id's and address's

I traced this out by peeking the pt and rect values and 
according to the info I recieved and, the position of the Cursor
relative to the ctrl_id area junk @ xPtInRect should be nonzero
but, it always returns zero.

Anyone faced this problem?

It's really a trivial problem, I have a method that works for what I need
to accomplish at the moment so, no-one strain for an answer..
