Tkinter displaying 300 records sluggish

[Irene Barg]

Everyone,
Thanks for your comments.  The fix was to just break the result
set into chunks, then provide navigation buttons (<<, <, >, >>)
to page between the chunks. Having to display smaller chunks at
a time gives it a more robust feeling.
Cheers,
