I was using 30 which is the default PBM_SETMARQUEE interval (if you pass 0)

Then it's not in marquee mode.
This is most likely as it's not compiled, and so not getting the correct 
version of the controls.
Using ComCtl32.ocx, a manifest, and compiling should get the correct style.

While my problem is that it's in marquee mode fine, other posts imply 
that it's an OS issue. On Windows XP the internal timer works fine, on 
Windows 7 it doesn't.
