Re: RECT - Rectangle

Nicholas,

Are you sure about this? It seems at first glance that the Rectangle class
uses left, top, *width*, *height* while RECT uses left, top, *right*,
*bottom*. Also, I think I remember seeing strange behavior when I tried
using the Rectangle class (changing to RECT fixed the problem.)
