[perl-win32-gui-users] closing windows

[Michael Solomon]

I am having problems closing windows

I have written a script that pulls up a window and asks for users entry

Then it pulls up a second window

My problems are that if the user cancels the first window by hitting the
close window button X at the top of the window the program doesn't end but
still pulls the second window.

The second problem is that the first window is still open on the task bar.

I could use HideWindow on the first window but that still leaves it open. I
would really like to completely kill the first window when I call the
second.

I hope this make sense

The code I am using is as follows:

use Win32::GUI; 
use strict;

###########################################################################
#set variables
#variables
my ($Frame,$title,$assetexist,$assetid);

#set font
my $font = Win32::GUI::Font->new(
        -size => 24,
                -name => "Arial", 
                );

#Enter Asset Number

$title = "Asset/Network Entry";

&FRAME;

$Frame->AddTextfield( 
        -name => "aTextField", 
        -top => 40, 
        -left => 20, 
        -height => 40, 
        -width => 300, 
        -prompt => "Enter Asset Number",
); 

#set field text
$Frame->aTextField->Text($assetid);
#set cursor on field
$Frame->aTextField->SetFocus();

$Frame->AddButton( 
        -name => "aButton", 
        -text => "OK", 
        -top => 180, 
        -left => 100, 
); 

$Frame->AddButton( 
        -name => "cancel", 
        -text => "CANCEL", 
        -top => 180, 
        -left => 200, 
); 

#display window
$Frame->Show(); 
Win32::GUI::Dialog(); 
###########################################################################


#check if asset exists in database
if ($assetexist eq "" )  {
        $title = "No Asset Found";
        &FRAME;

        $Frame->AddLabel( 
                -name => "aTextField", 
                -top => 50, 
                -left => 20, 
                -text => "Asset ID    ${assetid} Does not Exist",
        ); 
        $Frame->AddButton( 
                -name => "cancel", 
                -text => "OK", 
                -top => 180, 
                -left => 150, 
        ); 
        $Frame->Show(); 
        Win32::GUI::Dialog(); 
}


sub aFrame_Terminate { -1; } 

sub aButton_Click {
        $assetid=$Frame->aTextField->Text();
        if ($assetid ne "") {&aFrame_Terminate};
}

sub aButton1_Click { &aFrame_Terminate; }

sub cancel_Click {
        &aFrame_Terminate;
        exit;
}

sub FRAME {
        $Frame = new Win32::GUI::Window( 
                -font => $font,
                -name => "aFrame", 
                -top => 100, 
                -left => 450, 
                -width => 350, 
                -height => 250, 
                -title => "$title",
        ); 
}
