I have written in R this: require(tcltk) tt<-tktoplevel() Name <- tclVar("") entry.Name <-tkentry(tt,width="20",textvariable=Name) tkgrid(tklabel(tt,text="Please enter site number.")) tkgrid(entry.Name) OnOK <- function()
{ NameVal <- tclvalue(Name) use.this=NameVal tkdestroy(tt) } OK.but <-tkbutton(tt,text=" OK ",command=OnOK) tkbind(entry.Name, "<Return>",OnOK) tkgrid(OK.but) tkfocus(tt) Fairly simple, yet I am trying to figure out how to save the text that the user writes into the text box. This data will then be used for a query into a SQL database. How do I go about using what is written?
