Is there Anyway to Bind the Key "Enter" to the button of a tkinter entry? For example I was to query a value from a database and entered the Value to the textbox, but i have to press the button on the screen rather than pressing the enter button on the keyboard. Is there anyway to do it?

Solution

For binding the "enter" key, just use the win.bind('<Return>', command). Here is an example for your case (using label):

#Import the tkinter library
from tkinter import *

#Create an instance of tkinter Tk
win = Tk()

#Set the geometry
win.geometry("650x250")

#Event Handler function
def handler(e):
   label= Label(win, text= "You Pressed Enter")
   label.pack()

#Create a Label
Label(win, text= "Press Enter on the Keyboard", font= ('Helvetica bold', 14)).pack(pady=20)

#Bind the Enter Key to Call an event
win.bind('<Return>', handler)

win.mainloop()

Other Key Bindings

Most keys have their own name as the name used while binding. But some keys have different key-binds. A list of key-binds and events in tkinter can be found here (These can be used using the tkinter function tkinter.bind('<bind-code>', handler))
