in thread Passing arguments to event handlers in WxPerl

Thanks for the response. It think that you are on to the problem. Do the variables in MyFrame that I loaded with the data from the database have the right scope for the event handler sub to access them?

    Got it!!! Thanks. Here is the code: 
    sub Combobox1action {
    my( $self, $event ) = @_;
    my $selection;
    
    $selection = $event->GetString();
    
    $self->SetTitle( 'Combo box selected ( '.$selection.' )' );
}

    I guess I still need to clean up a little, but at least I've moved forward. Thanks all. Any other final suggestions are welcome.
