Thank you for the response my dude, I don't know why but it seems I defined another StringVar apparently, and that was the problem. It didn't occur to me then that the stringvar was not linked to the Entry at all!

Anyways I'm so excited my first every GUI script and my second python script ever is so close to being complete! Dance

I just appended your idea (but with isnumeric instead of isalpha) to the text variable of the entry widget.
