I've been using the above approach for years and have a cvs update from a
few days ago which is still working fine. I'd be very careful about putting
changes into vtkWin32openglRenderWindow based upon what I've read in this
thread.

very wrong.

>    this->renWin->SetParentId(this->GetParent()->GetSafeHwnd());
>    this->renWin->SetWindowId(this->GetSafeHwnd());

very right.
