I found a snippet of code for username pw, so then my solution was trivial:

    # -----------
    sub options {
    # -----------

      my $tBuild;

      require Tk::LabEntry;
      require Tk::DialogBox;

      $options = $mw->DialogBox(-title => 'Build Version', 
                     -buttons => ['Ok', 'Cancel'], 
                     -default_button => 'Ok');
      $options->add('LabEntry', 
                     -textvariable => \$tBuild, 
                     -width => 5, 
                     -label => 'Enter build version:', 
                     -labelPack => [-side => 'left'])->pack;

      my $sts = $options->Show();

      if ($sts eq "Ok") {
        $gBuild = $tBuild;
      }

      $txt->insert('end',"\n Build version set to : '$gBuild'");

    } # end of options()

I still need to figure out color, position and why I need the require's..

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


good chemistry is complicated, and a little bit messy -LW
