It's a wxPython app. I created the GUI initialy using wxGlade which gave me a small myapp.py script, a file containing the main application frame (containing a listbook controll) and several files containing panel classes. Each panel class contains controlls for performing various operations on the data set (adding records, deleting them, running various transformations). I can't say I understand how it all works at a deep level, although I've been hacking it about quite successfuly so far. Presumably if I pass DataObject through to the Frame object, and from there through to the Panel objects then presumably this will solve the probelm? I guess it would be passed by reference so all the panels would be working on the same data object? Doh! How simple. Why didn't I think of that? I'm too used to procedural scripts where you'd just put everything in a global data structure. I know this is bad, but it's hard to get out of that mentality. Many thanks, Simon Hibbs P.S.
