Get contents of editbox on RibbonX

[xp]

I have an editbox on a custom tab on the ribbon. Its ID=txtPeriod and its
LABEL="Period:";

I have added a getText attribute in the XML and generated a CallBack.

How can I retrieve the current contents of the editbox using VBA? Please
note, not using the On_Change event trigger, I just want to get the current
contents right now...

Thanks much in advance.
