Why would you ask how NOT TO USE Win32::GUI on a Win32::GUI list? The purpose of the list, and the knowledge base of the participants is how TO USE Win32::GUI.
Anything you can do using Win32::GUI can be done without using Win32::GUI. Just create your own equivalent to the functionality, using Win32::API, or your own C language DLL. Perhaps you are under the impression that this list was for users of ANY perl on Windows GUI facility? Really, it is specific to Win32::GUI. If you are a TK user, you might get better help from a TK specific group, or a TK on Windows specific group (if there is one). Amin Aleali wrote: > Thank you for that.
