Hi, i defined a list box in a *.tcl file like:

$base=""
listbox $base.listbox_consoleOutput \
  -background white \
  -height 1 \
  -width 1 \
  -xscrollcommand "$base.scrollbar#7 set" \
  -yscrollcommand "$base.scrollbar#6 set"

and now i want to refer it from anther file in another directory.
Both directories are in my auto_path but when i'm trying to refer to
my list box in order to configure it through the program, like:

.listbox_consoleOutput configure -foreground red

i'm getting an error message saying that there is no such command
".listbox_consoleOutput" . What might be the problem, how can i refer
that listbox?

Thanks, Sharon.
