Reading / usingdata from a field

[sumncguy]

How do I apply $entry->get to the existing field ?

I want to grab user content, a file name and location, and use it elsewhere.

my $filfld = $left2->Entry(-background=>'blue', -foreground=> 'white',
-width=>20, -borderwidth=>3, -relief=>'sunken',)->pack();

passing either scalar to the sub executing an open fails.

Thanks in advance.
