Dear Wise Types,

I am developing a perl/tk that uses the Tk::DateEntry widget. When I use pp (version 0.05 - PAR version 0.75)to package the application the bitmap used by DateEntry is not found and widget is not displayed.

I have tried the -a "bitmapname" option with the bitmap in the directory as well as providing a full path. Still no bitmap found by the widget.

The source for Tk::DateEntry looks for the bitmap with  $w->Button(-bitmap => '@' . Tk->findINC("cbxarrow.xbm"))
Of course taking the -bitmap part out lets the app run but that's not really a solution.

Anyone know how to resolve something like this?

Thanks a bunch ...and then some.
