Much thanks to you Neil!  This should put me 'back on track' with my 
code!  I had already spent a long time scouring with Google to find 
examples of 'spinbutton' that were easy enough for me to understand.  I 
had been confident that I could easily 'pick up' a new language like 
Python (and PyGTK) -- especially with all the resources on the Net -- 
but it has been more difficult than I imagined.  Now that I have 
discovered this mailing list, hopefully I will not 'spin my wheels' so 
much before asking for help! :)
