No problem:) I still think there is scope and opertunity for change if you
guys need it...

Sounds good to me. I assume you could something like:

sub SomeEventHandler {
 my $self=shift;
 my $win=$self->Parent;
}

Sounds good. Steve has added lots and lots of doco in the last few weeks -
may that effort continue, with us all contrubuting:)

One thing I would suggest, is to add a way for people to submit example code
(perhaps catagorised by control?).

Cheers,
