The code from my video on how to view an excel file or Pandas Dataframe inside Tkinter (with comments)
# Youtube Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgLjwl6Br0k
import tkinter as tk

# initalise the tkinter GUI
root = tk.Tk()
root.geometry("500x500") # set the root dimensions
root.pack_propagate(False) # tells the root to not let the widgets inside it determine its size.
root.resizable(0, 0) # makes the root window fixed in size.
# Frame for TreeView
frame1 = tk.LabelFrame(root, text="Excel Data")
frame1.place(height=250, width=500)
# Frame for open file dialog
