RJ,
Binding to a listbox is a little tricky. The problem is that the binding
event fires *before* the listbox changes selection. So when you query the
listbox, you get the previous selection.
The standard way to bind to a listbox is in the Tk Usage FAQ, number 8.5 at
http://www.purl.org/net/hobbs/tcl/faqs/tk/
But I believe that Jeff Hobbs recently mentioned on comp.lang.tcl that there
is a *new* and *undocumented* listbox virtual event which fires when a new
selection is made. Try binding your code to <<ListboxSelect>>, as described
in http://www.deja.com/getdoc.xp?AN=526544553
