Have you tried:
$hWnd->Resize($iWidth,$iHeight);
Just a thought.

That was my first idea after the -> way didn't work.
But with
Win32::GUI::Resize( $Window, 100, 100 );
nothing happend. So I supposed it to be the wrong way, too.
After your mail I tried it again, but still doesn't work.
It gives no error either.
$iWidth = 100;
$iHeight = 100;
$hWnd = Win32::GUI::FindWindow( '', "Microsoft Outlook" );
Win32::GUI::SetForegroundWindow( $hWnd ); # <- works
Win32::GUI::Resize( $hWnd, $iWidth, $iHeight ); # <- does nothing

Thx for clarifying this!
