That's what EVT_CHECKBOX is for -- why do you want to do it this way???

I suspect it's a question of when the events are processed. eh mouse 
click happens, your event handler gets called, then then checkbox is 
changed, rather than the other way around. If you really want to get the 
value after a Mouse click, maybe you can use wx.CallAfter() in your 
mouse event handler.
