I'm new to Python, and programming in general.
What I'm trying to do here is to load a list of accounts from a file on
my harddrive into a string of Buttons in Tkinter, and when I press one
of the Buttons, which has one of my account name, it will load that
account into a new window. But I don't understand how to code the
proccess that would tell the program what account is selected. Any help
with this would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance.
from Tkinter import *
import shelve
from tkMessageBox import showerror
shelvename = shelve.open('class-shelve2')
cat = (' Name ', ' Account # ', ' Amount Due ', ' Date Due ')
def NameFields(top):
name1 = Label(None, text=cat[0], relief=RIDGE, width=20, fg='blue',
bg='white', font=('bold',15))
name2 = Label(None, text=cat[1], relief=RIDGE, width=15, fg='blue',
bg='white', font=('bold',15))
name3 = Label(None, text=cat[2], relief=RIDGE, width=15, fg='blue',
bg='white', font=('bold',15))
name4 = Label(None, text=cat[3], relief=RIDGE, width=15, fg='blue',
bg='white', font=('bold',15))
name1.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky=NSEW)
name2.grid(row=0, column=1, sticky=NSEW)
name3.grid(row=0, column=2, sticky=NSEW)
name4.grid(row=0, column=3, sticky=NSEW)
top.columnconfigure(0, weight=1)
top.columnconfigure(1, weight=1)
top.columnconfigure(2, weight=1)
top.columnconfigure(3, weight=1)
def DisplayBills(top):
c=0
for bill in shelvename:
bill1 = Button(None, text= shelvename[bill].name,
font=('bold',10), command=fetchRecord)
bill2 = Label(None, text= shelvename[bill].account,
relief=RIDGE, font=('bold',10))
bill3 = Label(None, text= shelvename[bill].paymentDue,
relief=RIDGE, font=('bold',10), fg='red')
bill4 = Label(None, text= shelvename[bill].dateDue,
relief=RIDGE, font=('bold',10))
bill1.grid(row=c, column=0, sticky=NSEW)
bill2.grid(row=c,column=1, sticky=NSEW)
bill3.grid(row=c,column=2, sticky=NSEW)
bill4.grid(row=c,column=3, sticky=NSEW)
c = c + 1
def fetchRecord():
top = Tk()
DisplayBills(top), NameFields(top)
mainloop()
