In the remarks section of the MSDN article on HideCaret, it says:
HideCaret hides the caret only if the specified window owns the caret. If
the specified window does not own the caret, HideCaret does nothing and
returns FALSE.
I don't think edit controls use the standard caret because they use a
verticle line instead of the default underline.
