in reply to Tcl::Tk getOpenFile Not Working - Missing File Operand

I tried skinning the cat in a different way and made my last subroutine the following:
sub push_button { $selected_file = "mv ${select_input_file} -t /home/phillc"; system($selected_file); }
Unfortunately, result was the same error.

    Hmmm .. how can I repeat myself without appearing offensive/patronizing ?
    Please re-read my previous response, and

    REMOVE the "my" from " my $select_input_file" inside "sub open_file".
