here we go! for those of you who can't build modules on their own, I've prepared a PPM distribution of version 0.0.490. to install simply type: ppm install --location=http://dada.perl.it/PPM Win32-GUI it should work for 5.005 and 5.6 (eg. ActivePerl 5xx and 6xx). please note that the PPM contains *only* the precompiled module (PMs and the DLL), so for samples and docs please refer to the source distribution at: http://dada.perl.it/Win32-GUI-0.0.490.zip cheers, Aldo __END__ $_=q,just perl,,s, , another ,,s,$, hacker,,print;
