Hi Teddy, did you build Win32::GUI on your own or did you use the ppm-package?
If you don't have the possibility to build the module, you will have to wait until an official patch is available. I've created an entry in the bug tracker for this issue. If you have a C-compiler readily to hand, then download the source- distribution, go to Combobox.xs file and replace the code of SetEditSel with the following lines: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ################################################################### # (@)METHOD:SetEditSel(START,END) # Select characters in the textfield. LRESULT SetEditSel(handle,start,end) HWND handle WPARAM start WPARAM end PREINIT: LPARAM sel = end * 0x10000 + start; CODE: RETVAL = SendMessage(handle, CB_SETEDITSEL, 0, sel); OUTPUT: RETVAL ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Patch applied ;-) Now you have to build the package. How to do so is described in the Readme file that you can find in the basedir of the downloaded distribution.
