Python/Tkinter button color changing

[Crawford3]

Thanks for the reply. What I have accomplished is that I can change the parameters of the buttons when each is depressed but what I need to do is to have that button change color depending on the data returned to Python from an Arduino anlog input bit of data. In other words, I depress the GUI button with the Pytho/Tkinter GUI screen and my mouse and that sends a command to the Arduino which switches a relay. I would like the button to change colors and / or text only when the Arduino sends back data to Python that the relay has actually changed position. I have a contact from the relay that sends a fixed voltage to an Arduino analog input and I can see that value in the data stam but I just CAN NOT figure out how to use that bit of data to modify the button color. Help please.

This works it just doesn't really reflect the relays' switching status. The label between the buttons changes color and text when each button is depressed. I need those labels to do their thing only when the Arduino data says they have changed state.
