First of all, thanks a lot for the very precise and quick help! Ot
works now.

I will certainly give it more thought and probably reimplement this
program with model/view classes. Thanks for the heads-up.

I am pretty new to Python and more so with PyQt4 and am still to learn
a lot of things. I realized the issue with adding methods to specific
instances a bit after I emailed to the group. I am going to subclass
the widget classes in the program.

Again, thanks a lot.

Cheers!

Harshad.
