Coming from VB6, it seemed the natural thing to do.

I am a hobby programmer so I do this just for the pleasure of
creating something. I started with 16bit assembly back in the
day and from there went to various flavors of BASIC including
PowerBASIC and Visual Basic. Never made the transition to .net.
Didn't see a need. I have yet to find anything that I can't do
with Classic VB6 that I want to do.

Good advice. I have found some good tuts on Youtube for Python
and Tk. That gave me a good start. And I have several websites
bookmarked for other tutorials and references. Plus that several
knowledgeable people right here who are willing to help.
