Thank you Alan and John, No doubt the widow vs. frame terminology is simpe "once you understand it". But I am still confused. John used the labels "Main Window" and "Other Window" and Alan said you normally have many frames inside a single window.
Knowing that I am still confused by the window vs. frame terminology, let me use the term "userform" to express what I want the user to will see. What I want is, no doubt, ordinary. I want to display a "userform" asking the user to enter a folder path. When the user clicks the "Continue" button, I want to get the directory of what is inside tthe selected folder and show a different "userform" with check buttons for subordinate folders. When the user clicks the "Continue" button in the second "userform", I want to do some (no need to explain) things to the selected folders and then show a third "userform" with summary information about folder/file sizes and run time. I would love to see a simple sample that uses multiple "userforms". I will keep reading about Tk. What reference would you recommend. I have the Wesley Chun Core Python Programming book.
