Steve, I think Tyler is opening a custom dialog from his main GUI application. He should have used "ShowModal" if he was using one of wxPython's standard dialog boxes, but since he was creating his own custom one he didn't need to, which is why I told him to use the self.Close(True) method to destroy the dialog. Then again, maybe I am being "wrong-headed" about the whole thing. I was trying to come up with the "instance variable" way of storing the variables, but I could not think of how to implement it last night. Here are some other threads on the topic that I thought were interesting: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/tutor/2005-May/038648.html http://lists.wxwidgets.org/archive/wxPython-users/msg06482.html http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread60439.html Mike -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
