Todd Rovito added the comment: Roger, You are a genius!!!!! The example program duplicates the bug exactly. It works on Mac (I assume Linux but I will test on Linux) and it does not work on correctly on Windows. On Windows as soon as the text widget looses focus then the hi-light disappears. I will use this code and file a bug report for TCL/TK and post on the tkinter mailing list. Thank you I was stuck.
