Hi Alexander, Well you've just inspired me to have another go at XRCs and successfully!
So thanks. However for me they still have two drawbacks: 1 - they have no logic, so, for instance, if you have a notebook with one tab per date, you can't loop round doing one per date, programmatically setting names and ID's. 2 - you can't include a mapping to the database schema, so automating the database link too. So I feel I can use them on small dialog boxes, like ones that do "Add, Modify, Delete". And maybe that's a start. Do you know where I can find a definition of XRC syntax? I'm using wxGlade to build my XRC files, but it doesn't support, for instance Wx::GridBagSizer. Thanks and regards.

Hi Steve, have you tried to use XRC files instead. There you can split UI from rest of code. Means you can lso have different UIs for the same code - easily.
