My previous post was hasty and we all know, "Haste makes waste." Try this; If you use wiget-01.pack_forget() or wiget-01.grid_forget(), you can now build wiget-02 using wiget-02.pack or grid() for the same location. You can reinstall uninstalled wigets by using pack() or grid() again for those hidden wigets. However only after uninstalling for the wigets in those locations. root = Tk() test1 = Button(root, text='Test No.1 button', bg = 'yellow', width = 15, height = 10) test1.grid(row=0, column=0) test1.grid_forget() test2 = Button(root, text='Test #2 button', bg = 'green', width = 15, height = 10) test2.grid(row=0, column=0) mainloop() jim-on-linux http://www.inqvista.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
