[perl-win32-gui-users] weird textfield issue

Hello, I am playing around with Win32::GUI trying to refresh my memory on Perl and Win32::GUI, and: I have written a test program that basically brings up a toolbar with a button to open a launcher window that I can type a command in and launch directly. Well, all works fine exept I can't see the

Re: [perl-win32-gui-users] Displaying DB data

I've played with GridLayout a little. The way I understand it, it is to lay out controls on a window. Took me a while to figure out what was happening. For instance: define a grid of 4 rows by 8 columns. Then put a button in the last row and last column (and noting else in that row): you'll get
