Hehe.. The question I would ask is why isn't the documentation in all of the other distributions, or at least a file to itself with a link to it in the source code? I found the Win32-GUI accidently by doing a Win32 search on the PPM. It looked like something that would interest me so I DLed it, looked at it and blinked, wondering how to use it? Second step was looking around at the files that were installed and only found the creator's e-mail. Then I searched around more and found only other types of distributions of the product, but no docs. So I ended up posting the question. This goes to another question. What are the primary differences between Win32-GUI and Perl-Tk? Shain ---- Begin Original Message ---- Shain Edge wrote: > Hi.

Hi Group, This is a weird one! I have an app that runs just perfectly on both of my machines (98/2000). I sent it to my client the other day and when he starts it up all menu buttons are greyed out and inoperative right from the start... so he can't do anything. I have never seen anything like it. Any ideas?? M P.S. It is a joint Win32GUI & Tk application... could that be causing the problem? |

Did you create an executable and try it outside of your development environment? I think what I did was to place the call to Tk in the BEGIN routine I use for the splash screen. I didn't investigate why it was neccessary because I then decided to re-write what I needed in Win32::GUI. Anyhow, try a BEGIN { }. Marcus |

So I ended up posting > the question. you're correct, and pardon my nervous attitude :-) I usually announce releases on this mailing list, so I presumed that users of this mailing list were aware of the fact that the PPM distribution is only there to help people without a C compiler, not to provide a complete package. the documentation is not stable at this point, so it can't be added to the PPM (would leave a mess of half-written files here and there with every new release :-). > This goes to another question.
