Hey Aldo,

I tried the Global hash approach and it works ...sort of...

I think I need some pointers on how to tune DoEvents(). When I entered data in the dialog box I got ~880 key repetitions. I was able to get those 880 letters back to the originating function though... so I'm making progress.

Snippet Follows

#Events-----------------------------------------------
sub ::Dialog1_Terminate { 
    
    defined(my $win = $Win32::GUI::Loft::window{winMain}) 
    or return(1);
    print_dbg(" I am now enabling the window!");
    $win->Enable();
    
    return(1);
}


sub ::btnDialog1_Click{
    defined(my $win = $Win32::GUI::Loft::window{Dialog1}) 
    or return(1);
    our %MSG = %main::MSG;
    
    my $text            = $win->tfDialog1->Text();
    $MSG{"Dialogue"}{"Text"}= $text;
    
    return -1;
}
#App----------------------------------------------
sub GetDestination{  #( $combobox )
    #This function returns the drive library or other Destination
    #Selected in the Combobox object passed to it.
    my $combobox = shift;
    local %::MSG = %main::MSG;
    defined(my $win = $Win32::GUI::Loft::window{winMain}) 
        or return(1);
    
    #Ensure $combobox is infact a combobox object abort if not.
    unless ( "ComboBox" eq $combobox->GetClassName() ){
        print_dbg ($combobox->GetClassName());
        die "REcieved a bad object!";
    }
    
    my $destination = $combobox->Text();
    print_dbg ("Selected:".$destination);
    $destination =~s/\s//;
    if ($destination eq ''){
        print_dbg ("No Destination!");
        $win->Disable(); # disable main window until we get info we ne
+ed.
        my $dlg = configure_window ('dialog.gld');     
        $dlg    = build_window($dlg, "Dialog1");
        $dlg->lblPrompt->Text( "You must enter a destination. \n".
                              'Type one in the box below.');
        $dlg->Show();
        
        do{
         
         Win32::GUI::DoEvents();
         
        } until ($::MSG{"Dialogue"}{"Text"} ne '');
                
        print_dbg ("The user entered: ".$::MSG{"Dialogue"}{"Text"});
        
        
        
    }
    
  
    print_dbg ("I AM A STUB FIX ME!");
    return ($destination);
