Comment 1 Eike Rathke 2022-09-25 10:59:25 UTC 
Not a bug.

In  msgbox &hF000  the &hF000 is a 16-bit (short) integer constant where the leading high bit is a sign bit and indicates a twos complement negative number. This was fixed in 6.4.0 for bug 62326.

Force a 32-bit (long) constant with  &hF000&
