It would help if you tell what kind of error you get. From your code it
is unclear if address_window is indeed initialized, and how your
lookup_widget function works.

set_text is obviously puts text into the entry and get_text is used to
retrieve it when you need to know what is stored in the entry. You may
want to review GTK+ documentation on Entry at
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/GtkEntry.html
