[Tkinter] String variables in Tkinter

[rturus]

Hi,

I have string variable called park. I cannot see the value of the 'park' with following label in Tkinter:

lab=Label(mg,text=('Where: %.s'%(park))).place(x=10,y=30)

but I can see value of 'park' in the following way:

lab1_0=Label(mg,text=('Where:')).place(x=10,y=30)
lab1_1=Label(mg,text=((park))).place(x=45,y=45)

Any idea why the first one wouldn't display the 'park'?

Thanks.
