Try casting to LPVOID, or void *


hwnd = CreateWindow(szAppName,     //window class name
           "HELLO Program",              //windows caption
           WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,          //window style
           CW_USEDEFAULT,                 //inital x position
           CW_USEDEFAULT,                 //inital y position
           CW_USEDEFAULT,                 //inital x size
           CW_USEDEFAULT,                 //inital y size
           NULL,                         //parent window handle
           NULL,                         //window menu handle
           hInstance,                    //program instance handle
           (LPVOID)NULL);                        //creation paramaters, 
or try (void *)

There is a problem with this windows application. I'm getting an invalid
