def fix_tcl_error(s): if '\\' in s and not ' ' in s: s = '{'+s+'}' return s You can get the text from the Combobox with no issues. The error is in posting it to the Combobox when you have backslashes and no spaces (I think). I have just been running everything through this def before adding it. It has worked with no problems so far using Windows paths and grep-type search strings.
