Hi Les,
In Tkinter parlance, a "Frame" is a container that you use to build up
a window. Is that what you're after, or do you want to make multiple
windows?
When you call Tk(), it does two things:
1. it creates a top level window that you can put things into
2. it creates and initialises the Tk engine.
You only need to do (2) once, so you only need to call Tk() once. If
you want more than one top level window, you need to use Toplevel().
eg:
from Tkinter import *
root = Tk()
root.title("Main window")
lab1 = Label(root, text="This is the main window")
lab1.pack()
otherWindow = Toplevel()
otherWindow.title("Other window")
lab2 = Label(otherWindow, text="This is the other window")
lab2.pack()
root.mainloop()
