Hey Eric,
It's great to see that you are using wx! Looks like you're getting the hang of it! Keep at it and keep posting. I hope this is clear and works for you,
Barton

should be:

Code:

class TestFrame(wx.Frame): 
	def __init__(self, parent, log): 
 
 
		wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent, -1, "Dex Tracker Sco Editor", size=(640,480)) 
		p = wx.Panel(self, -1, style=0) 
		self.grid = WordGrid(p, log) 
 
## ...
 
 
		bs.Add(self.grid, 1, wx.GROW|wx.ALL, 5)

Here, self refers to the frame and since

Code:

	def OnButton(self, evt): 
		print "button selected" 
		self.grid.savefile()

is a method of the frame, self is the frame here too.

that seems to work as far as running the program. I seem to be able to change the cell values but the changes are not saved in the file. What is happening is that I get an exact (except it does get rid of the whitespace) copy of what I read but none of my changes (I lost 20k of whitespace and god knows what else invisible charecters). I have tried to read them off the screen but I am getting nowhere with that.

Code:

import wx
import wx.grid as gridlib
import sys



#---------------------------------------------------------------------------

class WordGrid(gridlib.Grid):
          
    def __init__(self, parent, log):
        gridlib.Grid.__init__(self, parent, -1)
        self.loadFile()

        self.CreateGrid(len(self.rows), self.widestRow)

        for r, row in enumerate(self.rows):
            for c, col in enumerate(row):
                self.SetCellValue(r, c, col)
            self.SetColSize(c, 10*self.widestCol)

        for c, label in enumerate(self.header):
            self.SetColLabelValue(c, label)
            
        self.Bind(gridlib.EVT_GRID_CELL_CHANGE, self.OnCellChange)

   
    def OnCellChange(self, evt):
        row = self.GetGridCursorRow()
        col = self.GetGridCursorCol()
        
        #self.SetCellValue(evt.GetRow(), evt.GetPosition(), self.GetValue(row, col))
        #This is the example no good will keep it in the same position
        
        if value == 'no good':
            self.moveTo = evt.GetRow(), evt.GetCol()   

    def loadFile(self):
       #from_file 
       infile = open(sys.argv[1], 'r') #The first argument passed in is the file name
       foundHeader = False
       self.rows = []
       for line in infile:
           if sys.argv[2] in line: #look for the second argument and make that the header
               #removefirst = line.split(' ')
               self.header = line.split()
               #foundHeader = 'true'
               continue     # we don't want to process this line any further
           else:
               self.rows.append(line.split())

       self.widestRow = max([len(r) for r in self.rows])
       self.widestCol = max([len(c) for c in [r for r in self.rows]])
    
    def savefile(self):
        linestring = ''
        outfile = open(sys.argv[1], 'w') #open the file defined in the output line for writing
        for word in self.header:

        outfile.write(linestring + '\n')
        linestring = ''
        for row in self.rows:

            outfile.write('\n')
            linestring = ''

It looks like you are trying to do something like this:

Code:

		#self.SetCellValue(evt.GetRow(), evt.GetPosition(), self.GetValue(row, col))
 
		self.rows[row][col] = self.GetValue(row, col)

Use lots of print statements when debugging, like

Code:

		value = self.GetValue(row, col)
		print value, type(value)

to make sure that the wx function returns the type that you need. Sometimes it's a good idea to use

Code:

		self.rows[row][col] = str(self.GetValue(row, col))

just in case it's unicode or wxStr object.
