     How strange. It clearly doesn't exceed any normal numeric limit.
I wonder what the problem could be. The program should be
tracking it's own RECT. The only thing I can think of is a
signed 16-bit integer tracking twips instead of pixels, causing
the values to come back as negative values at some point when
you get past about 2100 pixels. But even that limit shouldn't apply
if the window is small enough and in the center.
