I don't use Choice but ComboBox and as both use the same base (i.e. 
ControlWithItems/ItemContainer) you should be able to do what I do.

Most of my ComboBox's are loaded when they receive focus or when another 
control changes.

I then check if what is requested to be shown is already the same as 
what the control already has in its list and then do nothing, otherwise 
I do:

control.Clear()
.. get the items needed from the database
control.Append('item string', db.primarykey/s)

you could also use:
control.AppendItems(listOfStrings)

This is more a wxPython then a Boa question, so for questions like this
