I think I did kind of the same thing you are looking at. What I had to do was create a child process to handle all my requests. Take a look at Win32::ProcFarm to create and talk with your children processes while having your parent process deal with the interface. Give that a shot =-) I will try to find some of my code and send it on.

If anyone knows any other sophisticated method then pelase tell me 3/ I need to display the output while execution of each of the scripts, that runs on a button click, on some sort of box/window. This box or window can appear on the original window or pop up a new one which would close once execution finishes. that is : I have a basic window with buttons. on click of button I should see a text box or a pop up window which shows me the result of the script execution. If its a pop up window it should close when script finishes execution and if its a text box then it can just stay as it is once the execution finishes. I I have NO idea how to do this so any sort of help would be great. I tried reading some tutorials on Win32::GUI but Im still lost. Any advice/script snippets to start me off would be much appreciated. Thanx in advance Cheers Shuchi ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials. Become an expert in LINUX or just sharpen your skills.
