Jon,

Now looking back, from your example you had the create routines coded as 
:
WIN = create( Window, "Parent", 0,0,300,300,0),
CHILD = create( Window, "Child", 10,10,100,100, WS_CHILD)

In reality the create routine is defined as:

create( Window, "Title", parent, x, y, width, height, flags)

Is your example an exact quote from your program?  I am assuming not. 
Any way, you might try the following change to your parent/child 
relationship (not I added the parent parm to your example):

WIN = create( Window, "Parent", 0, 0,0,300,300,0),
CHILD = create( Window, "Child", WIN, 10,10,100,100, {WS_THICKFRAME} )

The WS_THICKFRAME gives the child window a nice raised window 
appearance.
