If you created the frame and the TextCtrl in wxPython, then it's pretty trivial to grab the contents from it and edit it as much as you like. Something like this will get the info: text = myTextCtrl.GetValue() Now it's up to you what you want to do with it. You can use the SetValue() method to change it to something else. If you're using StaticText controls, the methods would be GetLabel() and SetLabel() respectively. All of this is in the wx docs:  http://www.wxpython.org/docs/api/wx.TextCtrl-class.html http://www.wxpython.org/docs/api/wx.StaticText-class.html And why are you posting wx questions to the pywin32 list anyway?
