Scott, Couple of things. First, what version of Perl are you running? Type "perl -v" and get the build number...you may need to update your install of Perl.
Second...it doesn't sound as if you had any trouble installing Win32::GUI...sounds like the install worked fine. If your demos aren't working, say so in the subject line. Third...the errors seem to be with the GUILoft demos. What happens w/ the demos that ship with Win32::GUI? Or better yet, what happens when you write your own script and run it? --- scott sager <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Dear Fellow Perl GUI Heads, > > I am a newbe to Win32::GUI.
