Ok, I've tried your example:

        sysevents = app('System Events')
        hg = sysevents.processes['Hourglass']

        ref = hg.windows['Untitled'].splitter_groups[1] \
                .scroll_areas[3].tables[1].rows[1].text_fields[1]

        s = '<string>'
        ref.value.set(s)
        t = ref.value()
        print (s, t, s == t)

Here's what I get:

[eris:sas/Hourglass-trunk/Tests] sas% python2.5 hg_test.py
('<string>', u'unnamed customer', False)

Any idea where the 'unnamed customer' is coming from? Is the appscript 'set' command setting the text field's value? Can you post both your working AppleScript and non-working Python script for comparison? Also, if you can run your application with AEDebug enabled:

The 'unnamed customer' is the original field value, sorry for not mentioning that. It never changes. I don't have an AppleScript, I'm just doing this with appscript.

The AEDebug output is rather long, I'll send you the full output off- list.

Cheers,
Sven
