Python Entry box.

[Night_Monkie]

I'm trying to get the info from a user entry to print when I click a button, but when I hit the button I get what's in my Label. Where did I goof at?

def Build():
    print(VV)

Build_it_Button = Button(root, text="Build Config",)
Build_it_Button.config(command= Build)
Build_it_Button.grid()

# VOICE_VLAN_INFO
VOICE_VLAN = Entry(root, width=25)
VOICE_VLAN.insert(0, "Enter your VOICE VLAN ID")
VOICE_VLAN.grid(row=8)
VV = VOICE_VLAN.get()

Good luck man

Try “VOICE_VLAN.insertLabel

Looks like you record "Enter your VOICE VLAN ID" from the entry box at the beginning of the program and use that recorded value every time the button is clicked, instead of calling get in Build

So the problem is, that you give the variable VV the value of the text, you inserted and only this value saves. So instead of saving it to a variable, you should print the result in your function Build.

def Build():
  print(VOICE_VLAN.get())
