[R] Using text put into a dialog box

I have written in R this:

require(tcltk)
tt<-tktoplevel()
Name <- tclVar("")
entry.Name <-tkentry(tt,width="20",textvariable=Name)
tkgrid(tklabel(tt,text="Please enter site number."))
tkgrid(entry.Name)
OnOK <- function()

{
	NameVal <- tclvalue(Name)
	use.this=NameVal
	tkdestroy(tt)
}

OK.but <-tkbutton(tt,text="   OK   ",command=OnOK)
tkbind(entry.Name, "<Return>",OnOK)
tkgrid(OK.but)
tkfocus(tt)

Fairly simple, yet I am trying to figure out how to save the text that the
user writes into the text box. This data will then be used for a query into
a SQL database. How do I go about using what is written?

Cheers
