This is good advice.

Since your original project had such a clean separation between GUI code 
and the rest of the logic, however, you might want to investigate the 
methods discussed in Robinson and Hammond's "Programming Win32 in 
Python", where they explain how Python logic can make use of COM 
interfaces to interact with VB (or other COM) GUIs.
