Programming desktop apps in python and glade

I have started having a play around with quickly today. I have always wanted to have a go at GUI programming — I’m OK at scripting and ‘web’ programming, but the only desktop GUI work I have done has been on windows in Access/VBA :S

Doing the basics seems fine, but I’m jumping straight in at the deep end! The situation I have at the moment is I have my Main window, and on opening it it opens a login window. What I am struggling with is passing data back to the main window from the login window.

So… does anyone know of any tutorials for python with glade? Everything google throws at me seems to be different to the way that quickly sets up the project, and makes them hard to follow. Is the quickly way standard? Should I abandon quickly, and go with one of the tutorials and start again from scratch?
