Good Evening Fellow Monks. My question has to do with scrollbars. I can get the scrollbar to work with regular text windows Read Only and Edit, however I cannot get the scrollbar to work with the following sub routine below. Thanks in advanced. 

sub viewcars {

open(FILE, "cardata.txt");
my @lines = <FILE>;
close(FILE);

my $vall = $mw->Toplevel();
$vall->group($mw);
$vall->resizable(0,0);
$vall->protocol('WM_DELETE_WINDOW' => sub { 
});

$vall->title('View All Cars');

# I'VE TRIED IT HERE

$vall->Scrolled('Frame', -scrollbars => "ose",)->pack;

my $balloon = $vall->Balloon();
my $label = $vall->Label(-font => ['arial', '10', 'bold'], -text=>"CAR
+ OWNER | CAR MAKE | CAR MODEL | CAR YEAR") ->pack();
my $button = $vall->Button(-activebackground => 'red', -activeforegrou
+nd => 'white', -text => "Close", -command => sub { $vall->exit; })-> 
+pack(-side => "bottom");
$balloon->attach($button, -balloonmsg => "Close View All Cars");
my $car = $vall->Frame()->pack;

# I'VE TRIED IT HERE

$vall->Scrolled('Frame', -scrollbars => "ose",)->pack;

$car->gridColumnconfigure(0, -minsize => 10);
$car->gridColumnconfigure(0, -minsize => 10);

foreach (@lines) {
chomp;
my ($one, $two, $three, $four) = split(":");
$car->Label(-fg => 'red',     -width => '15', -text=>$one,   -anchor=>
+'w')->grid(
$car->Label(-fg => 'blue',    -width => '15', -text=>$two,   -anchor=>
+'w'),
$car->Label(-fg => 'magenta', -width => '15', -text=>$three, -anchor=>
+'w'),
$car->Label(                  -width => '15', -text=>$four,  -anchor=>
+'w'),-sticky => 'w');
}

} # END VIEW ALL CARS
