[Tkinter-discuss] Filling a series of tk.Label

[jimscafe]

I hope the problem has been solved for you.

I found your message because I was searching the internet for my own
solution. I am doing the exact same as you, creating a grid of labels.

How do you plan to scroll horizontally if the number of columns in the data
exceeds the number displayed?

I decided to use the Scale widget, it works but a scrollbar would be better.
I just couldn't figure out how to use the scrollbar - it seems that it needs
to be attached to a frame or similar, then how do you set the values? This
is easy in a Scale, but it doesn't look as good.

I also named the labels that displayed the data so that I could easily
identify when a user clicks on a label, which cell they had chosen. I want
to let them drill down on the data in a cell (the application is for monthly
financial data).
