Is there graphical support for this - for example I can I just insert/move/set properties of buttons, combo boxes, etc. using an interface like the one in VBA? Yes, you most certainly can. In the Microsoft world, you get a language and its one GUI toolkit as a package deal; but in most of the rest of the world, they're quite separate. Python can be used with GTK, wx, TK, and a variety of other GUI toolkits; I happen to quite like GTK, which I also use with Pike, a quite different language, and can also be used with C and various other languages. So you can get to know Python, and then later on choose one of several GUI toolkits, and figure out how you want to lay out your window from there. The tutorial sticks with the console because it's simple and easy to work with; adding a GUI adds extra complexity, which can be left for later. I don't know how much of "an interface like VBA" you'll get, but there are graphical window builders. Personally, I don't use them; but if you want them, they do exist. ChrisA
