Can anyone out there tell me what I'm doing wrong in the following
code?  I'm trying to create a window within (beneath ?) an Athena
Viewport widget that I can use to draw text & graphics.  

When I try to create an Xlib "SimpleWindow" with the previously
create Athena Viewport widget as the parent I get this error:

   X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
     Major opcode of failed request:  1 (X_CreateWindow)
     Resource id in failed request:  0x0
     Serial number of failed request:  5
     Current serial number in output stream:  17

What am I doing wrong?
