I have two files....let's call them main.py and popup.py In main.py, I do a import popup as dialog This works: dialog = popAdd.AddNewRecordDialog(stuff,None) dialog.exec_() What I'd like to do inside of main.py is call.. dialog.DoIt("Whatever will be, will be") popup.py has a plainTextEdit box,...and inside a function named "DoIt" which is currently looking like this: (though I've tried other permutations) def DoIt(message,self): QDialog.plainTextBox.setPlainText(message) I've also tried from inside main.py: dialog.plainEditText.setText(message) but that doesn't work either,... Anybody got any ideas how to make this work?... Or, if you have another suggestions, I'm all ears...
