There is something wrong in your installation. I dunno what, but I've used Tk with ActiveState 5.6, 5.8 and 5.10. I recommend to start over and USE THE ActiveState installer, their ppm (Perl Package Manager) program to get Tk. If a module is available on the ActiveState site, using their installation program is the easiest way to go. I tested this code on my machine and it works fine. `#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Tk; my $mwin = MainWindow->new(); $mwin->title("Hello"); MainLoop(); ###oh, this is important to start ###the GUI!!!!!` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Try uninstalling 5.8.4 and install 5.8.8 instead. Note that last time I checked Tk wasn't available as a ppm from ActiveState or from the other repositories I generally use for 5.10. True laziness is hard work	[reply]

I think the latest ActiveState is fine with basic Tk. Here is what I'm using: `C:\Projects>perl -v This is perl, v5.10.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread (with 5 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail) Copyright 1987-2007, Larry Wall Binary build 1004 [287188] provided by ActiveState http://www.ActiveState.com Built Sep 3 2008 13:16:37` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
