[Pythoncard-users] Error when running my App

[Lance H. <lh...@ha...>]

Hi,

I get the attached error when I click on the button to create a new server.

I am willing to share the code if it will help diagnose this problem and 
show my bad code:-)

If it were me, I'd try adding the line
    print self.selected, self.components.serverList.items
immediately before line 111, and see what that tells me. Is the index 
reasonable ?  Are all the list items you expected in there ?

If that doesn't help, feel free to send the code to me at 
al...@tw... and I'll take a look.

btw - why  "int()" in   self.components.serverList._setSelection(int(self.selected))     ?
Whatever is in self.selected ought to be an integer index already before this call can work ?

Come to think of it, why call _setSelection directly ?
Would it not be better to do 
    self.components.serverList.selection = self.selected

yes I do have a "0" in front of the list but otherwise the list shows up 
fine.

Thanks I will.

I remove the int section and it was redundant thanks for noticing.

It probably would be.

99% of the code in this app was reused code from the custdb example that 
Juergen Rauch wrote.

I just manipulated the code to do what I wanted.

So probably it is not right for what I want to do. I appreciate the help.

Thanks
