Thanks, Matt. I'm still trying to get a handle on programming for Windows and
making easy mistakes. I was confused until I read that any object based on
wxWindow can used procedures that require a window parameter. I didn't realize
that this meant that most controls could be specified as the window parameter in
procedures such as set_focus(). I think I've got that right, at least. Thanks for
the help.
