A typical call to create an Entry field would be:-

e = Entry(master, validate='all', ...)

Once this call has been made is it possible to change the validation 
mode at runtime?  Background, I'm knocking up an app so I can play with 
the various modes so that I can see how they work, as I'm just venturing 
into the tkinter world.

My fellow Pythonistas, ask not what our language can do for you, ask
what you can do for our language.
