When I run this example and hit the button I get:
Exception in Tkinter callback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1413, in __call__
return self.func(*args)
File "test6.py", line 8, in doIt
lbl.config(bg="yellow")
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'config'
as one would expect.

Michael
