Glad that it works for you.  Sometime in January or February I hope
to add pcmaker build support for the vtkTkRenderWidget.dll for python.
Until then, I've attached a hacked-together .bat file that will 
build it (it will almost certainly have to be modified for your system).
The vtkTkRenderWidget.dll should go in the System32 folder (along with
vtkdll.dll, or all the small independant DLLs if you build with
incremental linking).  The vtkpython.dll should preferentially go
in with all of the .py files, rather than in DLLs, but it will work
in both locations.
