I think this problem has been previously mentioned in the Boa mailing list.
Boa questions and problems are probably best answered there. See
http://boa-constructor.sourceforge.net/Help/  and
http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/boa-constructor-users for
details on Boa-specific help and the Boa mailing list archives.

Generally, problems of this type are due to a mismatch between the version
of Boa, wxPython and Python that you're running. I think Boa 0.2.0 currently
runs best with Python 2.2.x and wxPython 2.3.x or 2.4.x. (Boa reportedly
runs with Python 2.3a2 as well, but YMMV.)
