John, you really should post stuff like this on the wx lists....
Still, I have some suggestions to you.
First: It appears to me that you're defining event handler methods that
don't have an event& argument. This will lead to a major desaster if you
use another compiler. This might already cover your problem as well.
Second: If registering event handlers outside the event table, you will
need some casting, sometimes even multiple casts.
