But guess what, this must be my lucky day, I solved this one to, seems that VBNET needs a different type of declaration of the API function
It doesn't need a different declaration than otherwise VB.NET is no different than other languages in that... it needs the proper declaration though ;)

Because GetWindowRect returns a boolean, not a pointer or handle like SetParent or whatever.

code:
From the MSDN Library: GetWindowRect

Syntax:
BOOL GetWindowRect(
    HWND hWnd,
    LPRECT lpRect
);
code:
From the MSDN Library: SetParent

Syntax:
HWND SetParent(
    HWND hWndChild,
    HWND hWndNewParent
);

For working with API's, always refer to the MSDN library.
