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.
