No, I did that also and forgot to mention it, so that's not the problem. The
App wouldn't have run if I had.
Kind of odd since wxMDIParentFrame inherits from wxFrame...
Thanks,

Thank you Cliff. Your example worked.
I asked the question for what I hoped was the more general case. I assumed
that if it worked for wxFrame, that it would work for wxMDIParentFrame and
wxMDIChildFrame as well. This is (apparently) not the case. With the same
code except forwxMDIParentFrame.__init__(self, parent, id, title)
it does not work -- do you know what else needs to be done for
wxMDIParentFrame?
I can't really test MDI as I'm running Linux and there is no real MDI on
this platform. However, I have done exactly this in the past on an NT
box, so it should work. However, you'll need to change more than one
line. You have to derive from wxMDIParentFrame as well as calling its
__init__ method:
class MyFrame(wxMDIParentFrame):
def __init__(self, parent, id, title):
wxMDIParentFrame.__init__(self, parent, id, title)
Perhaps that was the problem?
