Money won't buy you friends, but it will get you a better class of enemy.

Made a big pot of spaghetti with homemade basil-mushroom meat sauce for an Italian party with a number of my friends.

Interesting thread!

What America really needs!

Scientific American Magazine
A Solar Grand Plan
http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=a-solar-grand-plan

Solar power plants could supply 69 percent of the U.S.’s electricity and 35 percent of its total energy by 2050. Excess daytime energy would be stored as compressed air in underground caverns to be tapped during nighttime hours.

You might want to move this to TechTalk Hardware, that's were the experts are.

It's best to combine your folder and file names with os.path.join(), then write your file out to the full path name:

import os

folder = 'c:\\outfiles\\newcf'
filename = 'CF092108.csv'
fullpath = os.path.join(folder, filename)
print fullpath  # c:\outfiles\newcf\CF092108.csv

# now write your string out
# it contains all the .csv data
fout = open(fullpath, 'w')
fout.write(new_string)
fout.close()

You can also use that path name for your input.

The wx.ToggleButton() widget changes its value between True and False each time it is clicked:

# testing wxPython's
# wx.ToggleButton(parent, id, label, pos, size, style)

import wx

class MyFrame(wx.Frame):
    def __init__(self, parent, mytitle, mysize):
        wx.Frame.__init__(self, parent, wx.ID_ANY, mytitle, size=mysize)
        # use panel so single button behaves
        panel = wx.Panel(self, wx.ID_ANY)

        self.tbtn = wx.ToggleButton(panel, 1, 'Toggle Off', (20, 25))
        # bind mouse event to an action
        self.tbtn.Bind(wx.EVT_TOGGLEBUTTON, self.onToggle)

    def onToggle(self, event):
        #print self.tbtn.GetValue()  # test True or False
        if self.tbtn.GetValue():
            self.tbtn.SetLabel('Toggle On')
        else:
            self.tbtn.SetLabel('Toggle Off')
        pass


app = wx.App(0)
# create a MyFrame instance and then show the frame
MyFrame(None, 'test the wx.ToggleButton', (300, 100)).Show()
app.MainLoop()

Please use code tags with your code to preserve the indentations. Otherwise the code is very difficult to read and not too many folks will help.

Something like this can do:

import datetime

today = datetime.date.today()
yesterday = (today + datetime.timedelta(days=-1))

filename = "CF" + yesterday.strftime("%m%d%y") + ".csv"
print filename  # for instance --> CF092108.csv

Interesting Game!

Wow, great art!

Keep trying, they do listen!

Other: hanging, drawing, and quartering comes to mind.

First hang them from the neck until NEARLY dead.
Next drag them through the city behind a horse (or car).
Then tear out their intestines out of their living bodies.
After that attach each limb to a horse (or car) and tear them off.
Display the parts across the country.

Come on people, you need to do your homework yourself or you will not learn anything! Salem's advice is your best start.

The widget wx.FileDialog() is most likely in the core DLL of wx, which is written and compiled C++. So the button label of the widget itself cannot be altered without going back to the C++ source code and recompiling. Not a task for the faint at heart.

You could however write a custom file dialog using wx.Dialog() yourself and use that.

Hey Dude you are good!

Wow, tough test!
