Ok...now I  found the way to do that. But I'm stuck further.
my code is as below:


main module
**********************
myRoot = Tix.Tk()
myAppGUIObject = myAppGUI(myRoot)

Gui module
****************
class myAppGUI:
    def __init__(self, master):

    self.cbAnalysisLib = Tix.ComboBox(master, label = "Analysis Library:")
    self.cbAnalysisLib.grid(row = 3, column = 1, padx = 30, pady = 30,
sticky = W)
    self.cbAnalysisLib.config(editable = 0)

   self.cbAnalysisLibVersion = Tix.ComboBox(master, label = "Reference
Analysis Library Version:", \

labelside = 'left')
  self.cbAnalysisLibVersion.grid(row = 5, column = 1, padx = 30, pady
= 30, sticky = W)
  self.cbAnalysisLibVersion.config(editable = 0)


The problem is that the labelside option is not working. I'm not able
to use even the wraptext option.
