Ned, Win32::GUI allows you to display windows in Windows. See:
http://search.cpan.org/search?dist=Win32-GUI Or Jenda's site at: http://jenda.krynicky.cz/#Win32::GUI There is also a Win32-GUI-Samples (on Jenda's site) which contains, you-guessed-it, samples on how to use the module. The docs are not very good (for Perl beginners, anyways)...I ended up experimenting with the samples to figure out how everything works. Russell J Foster Subject, Wills, & Company e.
