This is (I think) true; but the root can also contain widgets, and it is the default if no other master is specified. For example: >>> from Tkinter import * >>> def foo(): ... print 'foo' ... >>> Button(text='foo', command=foo).pack() This will produce a window with a button which, when clicked, will print 'foo' to stdout. To be honest, I'm a bit stumped by Adam's problem. Here is some code I just wrote which works perfectly (it produces a window with a column of buttons labeled 'field 0' through 'field 9'; each button (when clicked) prints out its number): >>> from Tkinter import * >>> def p(x): ... print x ... >>> for i in xrange(10): ... buttonName = 'field ' + str(i) ... b = Button(text=buttonName, command=lambda i=i: p(i)) ... b.grid(row=i) ... >>> -- John. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
