Hi Monks I have a single menubutton with few menuitems . My intention is whenever a single click on a menuitem its text for instance "supplier1" to be entered to the following textfield ($expenseentry) Thank You 
use warnings;
use Tk; 

my $mw = new MainWindow;
$mw->geometry("400x400+200+0");

my $frm_name = $mw-> Frame(-relief=>'groove',-borderwidth=>5,
      -background=>'black')->pack(-side =>'top',
                                  -fill=>'x');

my $expensemb = $frm_name->Menubutton(
                        -tearoff=> 0,-text=>"Eksodo",

       -menuitems=>  [[ 'command' => "supplier 1",
                        -command=> \&addtextfield],
                      [ 'command' => "supplier 2" ],
                  [ 'command' => "supplier 3" ],
              [ 'command' => "supplier 4" ]])->pack(-side=>'left',-anc
+hor=>'nw');

my $costlabel = $frm_name -> Label(-text=>"Timh",
                                   -background   => 'red')
                          -> pack(-side=>'left',
                                  -anchor =>'nw',
                                  -padx   =>70);
              
my $frm_name2 = $mw -> Frame(-relief=> 'groove',-borderwidth  => 5,-ba
+ckground   => 'black')
                    ->pack(-side => 'top',-fill => 'x');
$expenseentry = $frm_name2->Entry(-width=> 10)
                          -> pack(-side =>'left',-anchor =>'nw');

#sub addtextfield

#sub addtextfield {
#$val =  $$expensemb->configure(-menuitems=> [ 'command' => ""
