I think you mean an owned window, and not a child window?  If so, then
there are examples in the demos (for example see the help menu option
in the NotifyIcon.pl demo).

You want the -onTerminate handler of the owned window to return 1 (by
default it returns -1, which exits the Dialog() processing).

If I'm mis-understanding you, then perhaps you could post a (small and
complete) example so that we can better understand what you are trying
to do.
