There are so many things in the wxDemo I'm not sure which one you mean 
(neither of the two calendar demos I saw seemed to use PopupControl.py)

So I won't answer your question directly, but will answer another, 
hopefully related,  one instead ...

The easiest way to get a pop-up calendar is to create a Custom Dialog, and 
put a calendar control (along with the OK and Cancel) buttons in it. I've 
build a sample version, including a test program that uses it,  - you can 
download it via http://www.tweedly.net/Python/index.html

Note - I did one additional thing: the simple way to select a date is to 
click on the date (so it is highlighted), and then click on the OK button. 
I made it possible to also double-click on a date and that will immediately 
select that date and close the dialog.

Hope that helps - but if not, can you say specifically what example in 
wxDemo you are looking at, and what you want from it that you don't get 
this way.

Thanks
