Sorry, I confused things! I'm not sure why I suggested overriding that 
function now :-( I think I thought the control already drew its own 
border so didn't need the extra one. Anyway it should certainly be 
possible to use wxBORDER_NONE or wxBORDER_DEFAULT along with 
GetDefaultBorder returning wxBORDER_NONE. Apologies!
