Apparently, he wants to check whether the data exists, and if so, actually go and read it. Instead, he should read the data right away, and handle the case where it does _not_ exist.
Igor, That's what I've been doing. If there are data, they're loaded into a wx.TreeCtrl() or wx.ListCtrl() and displayed. If there are no data, nothing is visible. I was not sure this was the proper way to handle it. My years coding in C developed the urge to test every result for validity and not make assumptions about what a function would return. I assumed that I should do the same with python, and that the 'exists' test would fit the role. Thanks, Rich -- Richard B.
