Thanks for the responses! The buttons are working now.
Within this same app, I've got a search function working, but I need the
rownumber when a record is fetched.
sql = """select * from address where %s = %%s""" % arg1.lower()
cursor.execute(sql, (arg2,))
item = cursor.fetchone ()
index = cursor.rownumber
At this point, the record is on the screen, but cursor.rownumber doesn't
reflect the actual rownumber...it always returns 1. How can I obtain the
actual row number for the displayed record?
