    Sorry for posting this twice, it was accident. But the problem i have is that when i run the exe file it just goes straight to the perl2exe credits screen thing and doesnt even run my program. I know it works because it runs regularly.
      What type of GUI module do you use? There are a lot of GUI packages available in Perl:

      Tk
      Wx
      Gtk
      Qt
      Prima
      Win32::GUI

      You can try yourself with the tksample.pl shipped with perl2exe:

      perl2exe -gui tksample.pl

      At this point you can execute the program and only AFTER you close it the shareware notice appears.
        yeah, i ran the tksample program and it worked, i dont know what the problem is. I am using Tk.
        yeah i tried th tksample program and it worked, but i try it with my program and it doesnt. i am using Tk.
