Don,

   This is similar to how I want to restructure my application.

   I've not looked at all at XRC. I have discovered that if I put all the
methods in a file by themselves, and import them in the main project file as
'from wxMethods import *', they're not seen by python. Perhaps the methods
need to be in a class of their own; I'll look into the reason.

Thanks,

Rich
