Thanks :), I'll give both of your hints a try. What I basically want to do is have something like an "old style" button in win xp that's either "up" or "down", since I couldn't find a more straightforward method I thought taking a text widget and adjusting the border at mouse click would be the best alternative no?
One question then, what's the use of having a method like SetWindowStyle() if it doesn't really do anything at runtime? Is it indeed just intended for the few widgets that do support it? - Kees -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
