Below is the code in question: 


     my $BAK_menu = $menu_bar -> Menubutton ( -text           => "BACK
+UP",
                                              -relief         => "rais
+ed",
                                              -borderwidth    => 2,   
+             
                                            ) -> pack  ('-side'  => 'l
+eft',
                                                        '-padx' => 1,
                                                       );

     $BAK_menu -> cascade(-label => "Enter Repos."  );
     my $menu_move = " ";
     $BAK_menu -> entryconfigure ("Enter Repos.", -menu => $menu_move 
+   );

The goal is to make the first option a cascading widget. When it cascades, it will open an option to enter a directory where the backup repository is. Below that are a number of widgets. Click on these widgets, and you perform a different operation. I CAN'T GET THE CASCADING WIDGET TO CASCADE! Ideas here???? I really need a complete example to follow. Thanks in advance.
