Re^2: Hiding DOS windows that accompany TK

Did that actually work for you? I tried something similar from the Cookbook, although it may have been an earlier edition and couldn't get it to work. However after trolling the net, I found that by adding

$Win32::Process::Create::ProcessObj -> Resume();

after the code that you have, did the trick.

It did and it does. I don't recall whether this is lifted verbatim off the cookbook or whether I altered anything. I placed that code in a file a year or two ago, and have been only updating the path, and calling it.

Interesting. I could never get it to work without the last line. Maybe I had an older incarnation of the cookbook. To disagree, one doesn't have to be disagreeable - Barry Goldwater	[reply]
