GtkLabel: setting text

[Alberto Cabello Sánchez <alberto unex es>]

Hi all.
I´m trying to change the text inside a label widget. If I write 
label_set_text(GTK_LABEL(label),"Something");
it works as expected. But if I try 
gchar *text;
/* doing stuff with text, such as sscanf, strcpy, strcat, etc... */
label_set_text(GTK_LABEL(label),text);
I get nothing.
Any suggestion?
