You need to read the content of that file with:

my $content;
{
local $/;
open(FILE, $file_path);
$content = <FILE>;
close FILE;
}

Then insert the $content in the Win32::GUI control you want.

Subject: [perl-win32-gui-users] Control for Displaying the contents of a
text file?


Hello,

Newbie has just started experimenting with Win32::GUI. Great stuff. I
see that GetOpenFileName() returns the file I selected from the dialog
box. Which control(s) might easily display the contents of this text
file? I was guessing textfield...? But did not see a method to assign
the content to the control...

TIA,
Mark
