> Ivan ReborinSee what Brian said about your issue. As for whether or not this toolkit is for you, that's a subjective question. Try them both and see which one suits you. I like wx better, but I needed its widgets for what I was doing and Tkinter didn't seem to have what I needed at the time. Anyway, wxPython has an excellent user's group, where you can learn lots and the group is nice to new people too! http://wxpython.org/maillist.php Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
