How do I remove the warning "conversion from 'int' to 'HMENU' of greater size"?

Question

CDev-8220 385

I followed the guide on Creating, Enumerating, and Sizing Child Windows, but I'm getting a warning on this line of code:

(HMENU) (int) (ID_FIRSTCHILD + i),

warning C4312: 'type cast': conversion from 'int' to 'HMENU' of greater size

How do I fix this?

This seems to work: (HMENU)INT_PTR(ID_FIRSTCHILD + i).
