    Tried your code here, same result.

    Mine was extracted from CPAN pages, as I said - I just added the headers and the "MainLoop":

    #!/usr/bin/perl

use Tk;
use Tk::BrowseEntry;

my $var;
my $mw = MainWindow->new();


  $b = $mw->BrowseEntry(-label => "Label", -variable => \$var);
  $b->insert("end", "opt1");
  $b->insert("end", "opt2");
  $b->insert("end", "opt3");

  $b->pack;
$mw->Button(-text=>'Exit', -command=>sub{$mw->destroy})->pack;

MainLoop;

    Don't know what's wrong. I've just tested it in a Solaris box and it worked fine. But I need to run it on Win32.

      Works just fine here Tk 804.027, perl v5.8.9 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread. Maybe you should upgrade Tk?

        Heeeey... wait a minute! An older script is getting me the same "TclNotifier". And I have a compiled version of it that doesn't.

        I'll check the installation. Although I haven't installed any modules recently, as far as I can remember. Maybe it's the Windows Update thing.

        (EDIT) Please accept my apologies. Something in this multi-desktop program I've been using seems not to be fully compatible with Tk (or the other way around?). I'll get rid of this thing.
        Thanks for all who answered - I hope it was not a waste of time for you. At least somebody else in the same trouble may read this and find a solution.
