I do not think so, but am not 100% sure. You may want to try the Win32::GUI::Grid module as it offers lot more flexibility: http://perso.club-internet.fr/rocherl/Win32GUI.html#Grid > 2) Has anyone attempted an application that was "skinable" > similar to WinAmp?

Check Sourceforge for amphetadesk(sp?). I believe the creator of this program has implimented a skinnable interface, but am not 100% sure. > > 3) Dumb question but the I have to ask...The latest version > of Win32::GUI is 1.0 therefore if I have installed that > version I should see Win32-GUI [1.0] when I query my > installed package...right? Yep, but ONLY if you downloaded the source or ppd file and installed. The stuff on the ActiveState repository is like 3-4 years old. Go to Sourceforge and get the latest version. Open shell: 1) cd to the folder where Win32-GUI.ppd is located after you have unziped the download file 2) type ppm install Win32-GUI.ppd Now, you are good to go. I would also suggest getting the sources from Sourceforge also so that you have access to the example programs pre-written for you.
