<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I've been trying to figure out how to use the
<STRONG>container</STRONG> option in a frame widget in conjunction with the
<STRONG>use</STRONG> option with a Toplevel widget. Which according to the
documentation I've read sounds like it will give me a Windows MDI like
application with free-floating child windows within the
<STRONG>container</STRONG> widget. Has anyone successfully used this
feature? Here's the code I've been playing with.</FONT></DIV>
