Hi, I'm new to this list, and I've searched the archives for an answer (as well as the net in general), but I'm stuck and need help.
I'm just beginning with wxPython, and I've been using Greg Brunet's "SmallApp" sample application as a base for testing. (A big "Thank You" to Greg for providing that!)
After adding a few controls successfully, I tried to add a wxRadioBox, but can't seem to catch the event. I'm including the whole source below, just in case. If this is bad form on this list, please don't hestitate to flame me--it's so hot here, I don't think I'd notice anyway...
I'm running this on a Win2000 system with Python 2.3 and wxPython 2.4.1. Here's hoping someone can point out where I'm going wrong!
Regards,
Robert M. Anderson
