I got it working thanks to help from Jez. I had accidentally commented out the Win32::GUI::DoEvents() line. Doh...
Thanks for all the help! Brian Millham This message traveled at least 44,000 miles to reach you! [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Bret Swedeen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, December 13, 2004 8:43 AM To: perl-win32-gui-users@lists.sourceforge.net; Brian Millham Subject: RE: [perl-win32-gui-users] The splashscreen example Sorry if this question sounds dumb, but what version of Win32GUI are you using? I remember trying the splash screen example with the version of Win32GUI that installs from ActiveState, and the example didn't work. I made a minor adjustment to the code and it worked. Once I upgrade to the latest version of Win32GUI, the example worked without any modification at all.
