Try ammending your sample to read:
self.tc1 = wx.TextCtrl(self)
self…Bind(wx.EVT_CHAR, self.OnEntryKeypress)
matrix.Add(self.tc1, wx.EXPAND)
I would also suggest you take a look at the validator sample in the
documents and samples package.

Hi!
I'm new to wxpython, and I can't figure out what I'm doing
wrong… I’ve looked at other samples of event handlers and I
don’t know why this isn’t working.
I'm working on a sudoku GUI, and I'm setting it up as 9 3x3
gridsizers within a larger gridsizer. Each box in the sudoku
matrix consists of two text controls, a narrow one on top for
notes and a large one below for solved values. I’m trying to make
it so that you can only enter numbers in the text controls and so
that you can only enter one number in the larger text controls. I
figured I would do this with EVT_CHAR handlers.
From the other sample code, I think i'm supposed to write
self.Bind(wx.EVT_CHAR, self.OnKeyPress, tcl), with tcl being the
name of the text control for which i want to bind EVT_CHAR events
to my OnKeyPress method. However, this doesn’t seem to be doing
anything. I reduced the matrix to a single text ctrl to test the
handler, and I wrote a logger too, and I think my event handler is
just wrong. I suspect the problem is in the third parameter of my
self.Bind function. If you can spot what’s wrong, or clear up some
misconception I must have about .Bind(), that would be awesome.
Code is attached.
And I suggest looking at one of several wxPython Sudoku programs that Google could point you to that do it without using sizers and text controls but rather draw the numbers on a single window themselves. Then you don't have to worry about focus issues, having the overhead of dozens of widgets, etc.
