Thank you for reading this. I've progressed a little further but I'm now having a problem knowing when to use the "self" reference. In the following code, the function "ckeck" is called without the need to press the "check" button. This didn't occur before I sprinkled "selfs" into the code and added "array" to the "ckeck" function. I found that I needed "self" to point "array" to my list array "e" and I think that is where the fault is.
from tkinter import * class TestGUI: def __init__(self, master): self.master = master master.title("Testing") num_rows = 6 num_cols = 3 self.e = [[None] * num_cols for _ in range(num_rows)] for i in range(num_rows): for j in range(num_cols): self.e[i][j] = Entry(master, width=4, justify=CENTER, foreground="gray") self.e[i][j].grid(row=i, column=j) self.e[i][j].insert(0,"6") self.check_button = Button(master, text="Check", command=self.check(self.e)) self.check_button.grid(row=7, column=7) def check(self, array): print("checked") array[2][2].insert(0, "4") root = Tk() my_gui = TestGUI(root) root.mainloop() -- Regards, Phil _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
