Error: no suitable installation target found for package Win32-GUI.

I've done some more poking around and it seems that this error is usually
when a package was made with an older version of perl (can anyone confirm?).
So, I uninstalled the version of perl that is on that machine (5.8.7) and
replaced it with the one that I have on my machine (5.8.3 build 809) and
tried installing the 0.0.558 package again and I still get the same error.

Also, the following methods (or more likely, my use of them) appear to have
problems with the newer version of Win32-GUI:

SendMessage()
BackColor() # background of RichEdit
Text() # writing to a RichEdit
SetFocus() # bring a window into focus

Can you provide the full text of the error messages that you get? These should all work fine.

I also get an error that it cannot find auto/Editor.al in @INC.

That looks like you are trying to call a method 'Editor' on a Win32::GUI::?? object; Do you actually have a child window whose name is 'Editor'?
