If these are the correct changes to be made from the code you provided....it still does not work. In fact none of the input choices work now.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use warnings; use diagnostics; use Term::ANSIScreen; use Win32::Console; use Win32::SysTray; no warnings 'numeric'; $| = 1; # ADDED tray(); begin(); sub begin { # START BEGIN print "-------------------------------------------\n"; print "Please Choose One of the Following Options:\n"; print "-------------------------------------------\n\n\n"; print "(1) EMPLOYEE MANAGEMENT \n\n"; print "(Q) QUIT \n\n"; print " \n\n\n\n"; my $input = Prompt("? "); # ADDED if ($input){ if ( $input == 1 ){ sleep(3); begin(); } if ( $input eq "q" ) { sleep 3; exit; } } # END INPUT } # END BEGIN sub tray { my $stray = new Win32::SysTray ( 'name' => 'TEST', 'icon' => 'C:\images\logo.ico', 'single' => 1, ) or exit 0; $stray->setMenu ( "> &Test" => sub { print "Hello from the Tray\n"; }, ">-" => 0, "> E&xit" => sub { exit; }, ); } sub Prompt { my $prompt = shift; print "\n$prompt "; my $response = ''; my $rsel = ''; my $rrdy; vec($rsel,fileno(STDIN),1) = 1; CHAR: while (1) { die "user quit" if -1 == Win32::GUI::DoEvents(); while (select($rrdy=$rsel, undef, undef, 0.10)) { sysread(STDIN, $response, 1, length $response) == 1 or die "read error"; } last CHAR if chomp($response); } return $response; }

    It is possible that select does not work on a console on Windows. If that is the case, then I have no idea how to fix it without moving to a better operating system.

    I also wonder if letting a Win32::SysTray object go out of scope causes the tray icon to be deleted. If that is your problem, changing my to our on line 42 should prevent the object from being destroyed.
