Many of us fall into that basket (tcl/tk being an unknown quantity), Myself included. Although i find that by looking at what is there already, and using a good reference, the arcane nature of its syntax becomes understandable. I tend to say "what do i need to do" and "what can i find that looks like it does this for some other purpose, that i can adapt". I tend to achieve most of what i want with this method. Steven
