I want to caution you that you have an awful lot of fundamental concepts to get down before you're ready to tackle something like this. You have to learn the Python language, which means learning the concepts of class-based and object-oriented programming. After getting straight-line programming, you'll have to learn the concepts of event-driven programming, which is the paradigm used by all of the modern GUIs. Then, you'll need to learn the idiosyncracies of whatever GUI library you choose, all of which make compromises to mate with the variations in the operating systems they support. > I want to create a GUI windows app with Python.

Because essentially all of the major Python GUI toolkits have their own library of components that are vastly simpler to use than the SDK components. If you REALLY just want to write an MFC program in Python, it's possible to do that using pywin32, but it's not really very Python-like. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
