ok, sorry for the long wait. I tried this on both my work (XP) and home PC (Vista64) and they are both consistent.
I had both Python2.6 and Python 3.0 installed. wxPython didn't like that. As soon as I uninstalled Python3.0, my wxPython started running again. Must be some kind of registry thing. Thanks for the suggestion. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
