Thanks for the feedback to this thread. I tried the conversion but unfortunately it did not translate from VB to Python. It wrapped the VB using a lib of python calls. So the language is not pure python. From what I see.
So a full rewrite it is. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steve Holden Sent: April 13, 2007 08:56 To: python-list@python.org Subject: Re: VB6 To Python Michael Bentley wrote: > > On Apr 12, 2007, at 1:11 PM, Sampson, David wrote: > >> Any experience or insight would be great. > > It has been my experience that when migrating to a dissimilar system, > avoiding the rewrite is a mistake.

Since your original project had such a clean separation between GUI code and the rest of the logic, however, you might want to investigate the methods discussed in Robinson and Hammond's "Programming Win32 in Python", where they explain how Python logic can make use of COM interfaces to interact with VB (or other COM) GUIs. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +44 150 684 7255 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd http://www.holdenweb.com Skype: holdenweb http://del.icio.us/steve.holden Recent Ramblings http://holdenweb.blogspot.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
