However, if you are just looking to run an app in the background like a
service, you do not need to make it a gui (probably not the most efficient
solution). In that case, check out Win32::Daemon

When you create the child window, add this arg:
-parent => $Window,
Yes, you can hide the parent and leave the child showing...

Subject: [perl-win32-gui-users] Child Windows.
Okay, I'm working on an application, but I need to use a child window from
what I was reading, so that I don't have anything showing up in the taskbar,
when my app runs. I only want the window to be visible at times, and the
tray icon nothing else. I was told I need to use a parent windows and then I
could hide that and have the child window howing, and it should do what I'm
looking for, if anyone could help, I would very much appreciate it.
