Robin and Alex,

I had a reply from both of you, I'll copy both lists on this.

Quote of Alex's reply:

I have wxPropertyGrid installed as separate module:
http://wxpropgrid.sourceforge.net/

I will give this a try and see, I assume you use version 1.4?

Yes, 1.4.15.

I have just got mail from author of the editor.  He did not reproduce 
the exception (neither did me), but he thinks he nailed the problem 
down.  The exception is about duplicate name, and the assertion fails 
when we add a category named "data" when there already is a field named 
"data" in category "field".

It looks like a bug in wxPropertyGrid: logically, field names and 
category names would go to different name spaces.

And you get the exception because you use development version of 
wxPython which has assertions enabled.

This is what I get when I run it with 1.4.15 installed into wxPython 
2.8.12 in the prop grid, so it confirms that there is problem with 
duplicate name, hopefully fix will make it into 2.9.5:-) .
