[perl-win32-gui-users] Win32::GUI with Win32::OLE and RichEdit PROBLEM

[<pko...@me...>]

Hello!

When using Win32::OLE and a Win32::GUI RichEdit, I get an "Can't locate
auto/....al" error.

I have searched through the mailing list and found the following:

some times ago; you can search for 'RichEdit' in the
mailing list archives. one workaround is to load the
OLE constants in an hash rather than in the main
namespace, something like:
    use Win32::OLE::Const;
     my $EX = Win32::OLE::Const->Load('Microsoft Excel');
     print $EX->{xlMarkerStyleDot};

This did work for me sometimes, but don't work anymore. I then declared my
OLE constants by myself like $constant = 34, etc... I removed all
Win32::OLE::Const lines and that worked for a few times.

I reviewd my program, restructered some lines and that don't work anymore,
too!!!

Even if try something like my $riched = $win->AddRichEdit(-name =>
'riched'...) and use $riched->Text() instead if $win->riched->Text();

Please help,
