You might consider moving the entry  get()  function
into the  Submit()  call back ....

def Submit() :

    label.configure( text = 'The new code is : ' + NewCode.get() )

    x = ( NewCode.get() )

    print( "\n  The new code entered is :  " + x )



The following  insert  function will show the OldCode
in the  entry  box ....
 
OldCode = ( "1234-abcd" )

# ....

CodeEntered = ttk.Entry( window , width = 15 , textvariable = NewCode )

CodeEntered.grid( column = 2 , row = 3 , pady = 10 )

CodeEntered.insert( 0 , OldCode )
