Please Help me. I'm running a simple python program that will display the data from mySQL database in a tkinter form...

from Tkinter import *
import MySQLdb

def button_click():
    root.destroy()

root = Tk()
root.geometry("600x500+10+10")
root.title("Ariba")

myContainer = Frame(root)
myContainer.pack(side=TOP, expand=YES, fill=BOTH)

db = MySQLdb.connect ("localhost","root","","chocoholics")
s = "Select * from member"
cursor = db.cursor()
cursor.execute(s)
rows = cursor.fetchall()

x = rows[1][1] + " " + rows[1][2]
myLabel1 = Label(myContainer, text = x)
y = rows[2][1] + " " + rows[2][2]
myLabel2 = Label(myContainer, text = y)
btn = Button(myContainer, text = "Quit", command=button_click, height=1, width=6)

myLabel1.pack(side=TOP, expand=NO, fill=BOTH)
myLabel2.pack(side=TOP, expand=NO, fill=BOTH)
btn.pack(side=TOP, expand=YES, fill=NONE)

Thats the whole program....

The error was

x = rows[1][1] + " " + rows[1][2]
IndexError: tuple index out of range

y = rows[2][1] + " " + rows[2][2]
IndexError: tuple index out of range

Can anyone help me??? im new in python.

Thank you so much....

Probably one of the indexes is wrong, either the inner one or the outer one.

I suspect you mean to say [0] where you say [1] and [1] where you say [2]. Indexes are 0-based in Python.
