That was fast. Thanks.  I'm using web mail and don't recall the URL for the 
tracker (somewhere on the dabodev site I guess).  In any case - how could it 
be done?  QT uses a different method than wxPython.  Of course we would 
abstract the 'dabo.ui.widget.inputMask'. But if I recall all of the UI libs 
are different (even between versions - qt3 is different than qt4 etc..).  
Each of the UI wrappers might work (some sort of validator is available).  Of 
course all of that is just off the top of my head.  
 
BTW I was going to work on the new Psycopg2 interface for Postgres this 
weekend.  But the wife had other ideas.  But I'll still have time Monday and 
Tuesday.

John
