You have instantiated Tk twice which causes these kind of problems. If you want a window in go(), use Toplevel instead of Tk (and "mainloop" is not needed in go()). I.e.: def go(event): not_root = Toplevel() s1=StringVar() s1.set("s1") label1 = Label(not_root, textvariable=s1) label1.pack(side=LEFT) James -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
