GetThemeRect fails

I am calling GetThemeRect to work out the size of the part my code wants to draw. I pass in a valid theme handle, part and state ID, and 5002 for the prop ID ( which is TMT_DEFAULTPANESIZE, I need this to work by delay loading functions from the dll, so I can use VC6 with no SDK updates ). I get back a failed HRESULT, with the value 'Element not found'. I've tried a variety of values, and always get the same result back

    Hi Ayman. I'm not sure, to be honest. My theme code is all working, if I just abandoned this or fixed it, I am not sure.
