confusion over member variables/functions...

[Rory Walsh]

Thanks. You right, I left out that snippet of code in my abridged code. 
Is it ok to place all controls which appear in my child frame onto a 
wxPanel instead of placing it directly onto the child frame? Either way 
has that something to do with the fact that I can't call the text ctrl's 
GetValue() method? Cheers,

Rory.
