Unfortunately undef does not release the resources that window uses. So, if
you need to dynamically create (and destroy) a window continually then at
some point you will run out of memory.

One quick and dirty way to do it would be undef($Window); but that may
cause
other problems if you have other widgets that reference the window. For
example, if you have a Timer that updates a clock on $Window every second,
you will begin to get errors every second. So, unless you *really* want to
eliminate it, you might be better to just Hide it.

All,
How do you destroy a window in Win32::Gui? I read about a Destroy() method
but this doesn't seem to help. In the past I have just hidden any windows
that I wanted to remove but I now nee to destroy one completely.
