Looking at the lines below 
As related to the code I posted above.
I believe this code will allow me to instantiate the class
MyDialog, wait until the window is destroyed and then 
continue on my merry way.

root = Tk()
d = MyDialog(root)
root.wait_window(d.top) 


Now if I pass an instance of  Unamepword into the constructor of
MyDialog(unamepword) , I can modify uStr and pWord in MyDialog and 
the local copy will get updated.  
Correct?

class Unamepword:
    ## 
    ## class to hold user name and pWord for Database
    uName = None
    pWord = None
    def __init__(self, uStr, pStr):
        self.uName = uStr
        self.pWord = pStr

Many thanks for your attention to this matter.
