In making your code example runnable I end up with something that runs fine. Here's what I cut your code down to: #!perl -w use strict; use warnings; use Win32::GUI(); my $progress = Win32::GUI::Window->new( -title => 'Conversion Progress', -name => 'Progress', -size => [450,125], ); $progress->AddProgressBar( -name => 'PB', -size => [400,20], -pos => [0,20], ); $progress->AddStatusBar( -name => 'SB', ); $progress->PB->SetRange(0,100); $progress->Center(); $progress->Show(); foreach (1 .. 100) { $progress->PB->SetPos($_); $progress->SB->Text("$_"); #Win32::GUI::DoEvents(); # See later in email Win32::Sleep(100); } $progress->Hide(); exit(0); __END__ As I said, it runs fine, and the progress bar is displayed. The only thing that I can see that you might want to do is add a Win32::GUI::DoEvents() call during the loop, so that all windows messages get processed - otherwise things like paint messages are not handled (try moving another window across the front of the progress window, while it is running).
