It may not be a match. Try doing such things as casting your
parameters to the ones in StdIcon::Load, e.g.:

Load( (HINSTANCE) x, (int) y); // you probably won't need to cast the int

I've worked through a number of the examples on Reliable Software's
site (<http://www.relisoft.com/win32/>) - that and reinterpret_cast
caused me the most difficulties. For reinterpret_cast, I just replaced
it with a c-style cast (instead of "reinterpret_cast<int> y" I just
did "(int) y").q

By the way, how do you like that book? I really enjoy Bartosz' fine
win32 examples from the link above, esp.the model-view-controller
information.
