I guessed at a solution like that, but didn't see $self in the documentation for Button_Click(): http://perl-win32-gui.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/docs.cgi?doc=button Where is this documented? ________ It should be documented in the NEM section. Win32::GUI supports two event modles OEM (old event model) and NEM (new event model). OEM is like visual basic, with the control name and the event name. So if a button was called "hello" and the button was clicked, the sub hello_Click would be called. OEM is only sutible for simple scripts With NEM you pass the reference of the sub that you want to run in response to an event (this makes NEM faster). To some exent a NEM event is like a method being called on that control and as such, the first parm being passed is the control. Does that help? Again no win32::GUI on this box.....
