Problem with WaitWindow() in Win32::GuiTest

Edge118 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, I'm trying to get the WaitWindow method to work:

use Win32::GuiTest qw(WaitWindow GetForegroundWindow SetForegroundWind
+ow SendKeys);

system("start WINWORD.exe");

sleep 3;

$parentWindow = GetForegroundWindow();

SendKeys("%of");

$success = WaitWindow('^Font$',1);

print $success;

The error I get is: "WaitWindow" is not exported by the Win32::GuiTest module Can't continue after import errors at gui.pl line 1 BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at gui.pl line 1.

I removed the WaitWindow from line 1 and got the following error: Undefined subroutine &main::WaitWindow called at gui.pl line 11.

I appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks!

the WaitWindow subroutine was added in release 1.50.2-ad of Win32::GuiTest. if you have an earlier release (like 1.3.0,) WaitWindow won't work. try: `use Win32::GuiTest 1.50.2 qw(...);` [download] ~Particle accelerates	[reply] [d/l]
