Re^3: Read Only fields from Tk, neither Text or ROText seem to work.

I probably would have approached it differently to start with, in that I would have used label and entry widgets, vs Text/ROText, mostly because everything in your sample seems to be single-line fields. On the other hand, I've no clue as to how many label/entry pairs you would need; at some number (a half-dozen? a score?), your method may be less unwieldly than using label/entry pairs.

Well, I have around forty pairs on this screen (not my choice, duplicating extant function.) But I will see about the label/entry option. Skip	[reply] [d/l]
