Hi All, this below sub creates buttons by order using an foreach loop. and adds text to them using an arry (@row$i) my question is: i want to click on the button and print the text that appers on that specific button. any idea how ? 

sub copy_entry 

{

$i = 0;
my %hash;

$search = $entrysearch->get();

        $f1 = $mwf->Frame()->pack(-expand => 0,-fill => 'both' );

            foreach $fr($f1)
            {

                my $i =0;
                  foreach (1..5)
                  {
                        $hash{'text'} = $fr->Button(
                           -relief => 'groove',
                           -background => 'white',
                           -foreground => 'black',
                          -font => "Ariel 8 bold",
                    -text => $row[$i],
                           -height     => 1,
                           -width      => 1
                                   )->pack(-side=>'left',-expand => 1,
+ -fill => 'both' );
                    

                    $i++;
                  }        
            }
}
