declaimed the following in comp.lang.python:
Without being able to run the code my
question is where is the id in the lambda
defined?
Please take into account that I've not
actually used lambdas, so might have some
mistakes in the syntax...
for bill in shelvename:
global funcs
bill1 = Button(None, text=
shelvename[bill].name,
font=('bold',10),command=(lambda x = id:
fetchRecord(x)))
id would be something that identifies the
button... In this case, maybe you can use
bill:
Think about relating a Tkinter variable to each
button then the button is related to a unique
variable. ( Tkinter StingVar or IntVar or some
others.) Then you will have to keep the variables
in a list or dictionary for recalling.

... command=(lambda x = bill: fetchRecord(x))
...
As I understand the lambda syntax, what this
does is create a function (which is the
command that gets run when the button is
pushed), and this function will call
fetchRecord passing it the value that x had
at the time of definition (hence the x=...)

You wrote that the info was in a file on
the hd. If it is in a file on the hd, use the
open()
function, read from the file, only one record
and write the data to a list.
You can incorporate the
button option,
command = CallSomeFunction,
to call a function that builds a window,
and loads the data into labels or
entry boxes.
If you are going to modify
the data, entry boxes allow you to
modify it and save it back to a
file.
Also, when using the open() function,
close it after you get the data you need.
otherwise you may experience
unexpected problems.
client = open('client', 'r')
client.read() (readline()) (readlines())
client.close()

Press button to load data
I'm new to Python, and programming in general.
What I'm trying to do here is to load a list of accounts from a file on
my harddrive into a string of Buttons in Tkinter, and when I press one
of the Buttons, which has one of my account name, it will load that
account into a new window. But I don't understand how to code the
proccess that would tell the program what account is selected. Any help
with this would be very appreciated. Thanks in advance.
