How to Show File Path with Browse Button in Python / Tkinter

Question

Working with Python and Tkinter, I have been trying to find out the way to show the file_path beside the Browse Button but unable to do so.

Here is my code:

<         


        

Answer 1

First, change this line:

    Entry(f1, width=50, textvariable=file_path).grid(row=0,column=1,padx=2,pady=2,sticky='we',columnspan=25)

to this:

entry = Entry(f1, width=50, textvariable=file_path)
entry.grid(row=0,column=1,padx=2,pady=2,sticky='we',columnspan=25)

Then, in the open_file() function, add these two lines, just before the return:

entry.delete(0, END)
entry.insert(0, file_path)

Explanation: First, we give the entry a name, so that it can be modified. Then, in the open_file() function we clear it and add the text for the file-path.
