Check out how to use Entry Wiget
for data entry.

====

from Tkinter import *

root = Tk()  ## this is the default window
vlab = Label(root,   width = 20, 
                  text = 'Enter data here')
vlab.grid( row=0, column =0)

ventry= Entry(root, width = 30)
ventry.grid(row = 0, column = 1)
mainloop()
