The above pair of lines look odd.
You delete everything on the listbox then try to iterate
over it? Is that really what you want?

Also are you sure you can iterate over a listbox widget?
I was not aware of that capability and can see nothing
about iterators in the listbox help screen...

I usually use the get() method to fetch the contents
before trying to iterate over them:

for item in myList.get(0,tk.END):
   # use item
