Maybe everyone else already knew this, but I didn't: The sequence
use Win32; use Win32::GUI; produces lots of redefinition warnings from the exporter, it appears, but the sequence use Win32::GUI; use Win32; does not. Clearly the workaround is simple. But I'm curious how Win32 is smarter than Win32::GUI in the way exporter is used or invoked. I'd rather not figure that out myself, as it isn't really important to me, if someone already has figured it out and can explain it in simple terms. -- Glenn ===== Due to the current economic situation, the light at the end of the tunnel will be turned off until further notice.
