Esteemed Monks,

In the following code a button is placed in a grid inside a frame inside a NoteBook tab.

sub doFileImportUi {
    my ($pg, $dbh) = @_;

    $pg->Label(-text => 'File', -width => '10')->grid(
        $pg->LabEntry(-width => '30', -textvariable => \$state->{ImpFi
+le}), $pg->Button(-text => 'Browse', -command => [ \&getImportFile, $
+pg, $dbh], -width => '10'));
    $pg->Label(-text => 'DataSource', -justify => 'right', -width => '
+20')
            ->grid(my $ds_list = $pg->BrowseEntry(-variable => \$state
+->{dsSrcName}, -browsecmd => \&doGetDatasource, -listcmd => [ \&doLoa
+dDs, $pg, $dbh ], -width => '20'), -sticky => 'w');
    my $gbtn = $pg->Button(-text => 'Next Phase')->grid();

    $gbtn->configure(  -command => [ \&doImportFile, $pg, $dbh, $gbtn 
+]);
    my @listname = &doLoadDs($pg, $dbh);
    $ds_list->insert('end', @listname);

}

When I click on that button and go to the doImportFile() sub I want to remove the button. According to the grid manpage it is possible, but if I use this code, which seems plausible according to the manpage:

    $pg->gridRemove($gbtn);

Then I get the error:

Does any one have a suggestion to offer about how to remove the button from the window?
