Okay, I got a new copy and all seems well now. The dll is found and loaded. The functions inside the dll are not working, but that is not Python's fault. Thanks to everyone for your help and suggestions! On 3/15/10, Ulrich Eckhardt eckha...@satorlaser.com wrote: Alex Hall wrote: On 3/15/10

problem with variable and function

Hi all, I have a file with a dictionary and a function. The dictionary holds the name of the function, and the function references the dictionary. If I put the dictionary first, the function is happy but the dictionary says the function is not defined. If I switch the two and put the function

Hello all, I am trying to make a gui out of xrc and wxpython, but I think my understanding of Python's class/method structure is causing problems. The below code returns an error on the line panel=xrc.XRCCTRL(mf, dl) The error goes back to wxPython itself and says attribute error: 'none' type
