Hmm, I'm a bit stumped.
I installed the ttk module and tried applying the code.
However when I ran my code it gave me an error.
I thought I might have left a small typo in or something and removed
the code to check my own.
After I removed the ttk import and code it wouldn't even run my own code again.
Below is the Traceback:
C:\Users\Olrik Lenstra\Desktop\TroubleShooting Olrik>python TSO.pyw
Traceback (most recent call last):
