It's definitely a bug.

Try putting the following code into your source file near the top:



Hopefully that should sort it out. If not, then it's back to Mike ...

Those warnings can be ignored. They appear because you have the 'Detect 64-bit Portability issues' set to Yes. It's not a problem if you switch that option to No.

I will get this one fixed for the next upgrade. Must have missed it out on the list of castings.
