Thanks for explaining that. I borrowed the "after" method that you used
in your first reply. It seems to do what I want (except for
root.destroy) Though any suggestions on a more elegant solution
welcome.
cheers David
from Tkinter import *
def message1():
top1 = Tk()
F1 = Frame(top1)
F1.pack()
Hello1 = Label(F1, text="step 2 you will be logged off in 5
seconds")
Hello1.pack()
top1.after(3000, message2)
def message2():
top2 = Tk()
F2 = Frame(top2)
F2.pack()
Hello2 = Label(F2, text="step 3 you will be logged off in 2
seconds")
Hello2.pack()
top2.after(2000, goodbye)
def goodbye():
print "step 4 you are logged out"
root.destroy
root = Tk()
root.withdraw()
print "step 1 login window withdrawn"
message1()
root.mainloop()
