Alan and all,

I imported it, but its not there. I tried using the Message one found in it,
but I got an error message:
>>> import Tkinter
>>> tk = Tkinter.Tk()
>>> Tkinter.Message("Help","Help!")

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#6>", line 1, in -toplevel-
    Tkinter.Message("Help","Help!")
  File "D:\Python24\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py", line 2640, in __init__
    Widget.__init__(self, master, 'message', cnf, kw)
  File "D:\Python24\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py", line 1862, in __init__
    BaseWidget._setup(self, master, cnf)
  File "D:\Python24\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py", line 1840, in _setup
    self.tk = master.tk
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'tk' 

What does this mean, and how can I get it working?
Nathan

Nathan,

A NameError means Python doesn't recognise the name.
Usually that's because either you didn't declare the variable or you forgot
to import the module or you spelled it wrong.

In this case I'd guess you forgot the import?

Python error messages are really quite helpful if you just stop and think
about what they are saying for a few minutes.
