Tkinker comand problem...

This code:

self.exit = Button(master, text="Exit", command=root.quit)

This code doesn't seem to work. When I press the button it just freezes the program, a "illegal operation" occurs, and it is forced to close. I also tried:

self.exit = Button(master, text="Exit", command=frame.quit)

But that didn't work either. Does anyone know why this is happening.
Thanks.

Hey Baltor,

I'm not sure this will work as I don't have the rest of your code infront of me but try self.exit = Button(master, text="Exit", command=master.quit)

if that doesn't work post the rest of your code and i'll take a look.

Take care,
Mark.

That didn't work; same problem.
Here is the rest of my code:
Note: It isn't finished so some stuff doesn' work.

Code:

# Dice Roller Program
# By Evan Patterson

from Tkinter import *

class App:

    def __init__(self, master):

        frame = Frame(master)

        # Labels        
        self.label1 = Label(master, text="# of Rolls:")
        self.label2 = Label(master, text="# of Sides:")
        self.label3 = Label(master, text="Results:")
        self.label4 = Label(master, text="Dice Roller\n by Evan Patterson")
        self.label1.grid(sticky=E)
        self.label2.grid(sticky=E)
        self.label3.grid(sticky=E)
        self.label4.grid(row=0, column=2, columnspan=2, rowspan=2)

        # Entries
        self.entry1 = Entry(master)
        self.entry2 = Entry(master)
        self.results = Entry(master)
        self.entry1.grid(row=0, column=1)
        self.entry2.grid(row=1, column=1)
        self.results.grid(row=2, column=1)
    
        # Buttons
        self.exit = Button(master, text="Exit", command=master.quit)
        self.roll = Button(master, text="Roll!", command=self.roll)
        self.roll.grid(row=3, column=2)
        self.exit.grid(row=3, column=3)
        
        # Checkpoint
        self.rollopt = IntVar()
        checkbutton = Checkbutton(master, text="Don't Add Rolls Together", variable=self.rollopt , command=self.roll)
        checkbutton.grid(columnspan=2, column=0, row=3, sticky=W)
                       
    def roll(self):
        if rollopt == 0:
            rollr = random.randint(1, self.entry2)
        
root = Tk()
app = App(root)
root.title("Dice Roller")
root.mainloop()

Thanks for your help.

Balor what version of Python are you running and on what platform because this code works fine for me :S. If you could post the error your getting that might shed some light on whats going on here..

I'm running Python 2.3 on Windows XP Home Edition.
This is the error:

Script '[adress of the program]' returned exit code 0.

Then it says;

Runtime Error!
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate in an unusual way. Please contact the programs support team for more information.

Then, after hitting OK, it says:

The instruction at "0x73dd1351" referenced a memory at "0x000000004". The memory could not be read. Click OK to terminate the program.

I have no idea why it is doing this....
