I wanted to take the time to do this, although I sort of knew it wouldn't help.
At the point in CreateEx that the program attempts to assign the parent, it
has the value for the parent per the token (MySpecialWindow) but when I interrogate
the trace window for the values of all of my windows, they are not there. Hence,
getNameId("avariablethatdoesnotexist") will always return a zero.
Something appears to be wrong with my scoping (which is truly bizarre), because
at this point, no matter how explicitly I set the Owner in the newUIObj instruction,
the createEx routine won't be able to assign the parent if the ids are just
not there.
I'm going to run this again and go through the procedure in detail for a control
where the parent IS set properly.
I'll post after that.
Thanks for trying.
