Hi Alan,
Sorry for being ambiguous earlier. I can make it more clear in this email.
I am planning on creating a scrollable table (grid of values) with title
labels for each column and rows present in it and a title for the overall
table.
I saw it online that to create a table in tkinter, I can use a built in
module tkintertable but would have to download it.
when I tried to install tkintertable using pip: i got the following errors:
Poojas-MacBook-Pro:~ poojabhalode$ pip install tkintertable
Collecting tkintertable
Collecting Pmw (from tkintertable)
Installing collected packages: Pmw, tkintertable
Exception:

After this, if I tried to import
>From tkintertable import TableCanvas
It gave me an error saying no module tkintertable found.
Can you please suggest me as to what I can do and how I can create the
table required? I also want to create another table wherein there would be
scrollable rows and columns. There would be one main column, which would be
subdivided into three and then the three columns subdivided into more
columns.
Please let me know.
Thank you
Pooja
