Thanks for the quick reply. A quick answer to your question is: nothing is wrong with the Scale.set(value) method. My problem was two fold. First, I had assumed from either an error message, or something I read in one of the tutorials, that the "set" function was not available in the Scale widget, although the "get" is. Second, as a student of Python/Tkinter, I had a problem with scoping some of my variables. I believe all is worked out now, and I can now move my scale from my program thanks to your encouraging response to my question. All I needed was someone to get me on track again, and I appreciate it.
