Thanks Rob, I did as you suggested and raised an item in comp.lang.perl.tk.

However, the *real* culprit is probably the version of Tk that is being run. AS build 810 (and later) runs Tk-804.027. AS build 638 runs Tk-800.024. I have a perl 5.8.8 with Tk-800.024 and it returns 'ok' (same as build 638) for that script. I therefore submit that complaints should be sent to the Tk mailing list, in general (and to Nick Ing-Simmons, in particular :-) Cheers, Rob _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
