Hello!
I am working on a GUI to connect to a MySQL database using MySQLdb (code
in attached file). I define the cursor in lines 55-66 in the OnLogin
function within the LoginDlg class.

/db= MySQLdb.connect(host='localhost', user=Username , passwd=pwd,
db='Ornithobase')
self.cursor = db.cursor()/

When I try to use the cursor on another part of the code (EditUser
class, line 176)

/sql = 'select substring_index(CURRENT_USER(),"@",1)'
login.cursor.execute(sql)/

I get this error:

/AttributeError: 'LoginDlg' object has no attribute 'cursor'/

You can check the code for details, I think is better.
Cheers!

self.cursor = db.cursor()
...
self.Destroy()  # probably clears the object


Also, it's generally better to hold on to the database handle and
get a cursor from it as a local variable when needed.  You
need the database handle for "db.commit()", at least.  Getting
a cursor is fast.  (Actually, in MySQL, there is only one cursor.)


I realize it's a desktop application, but still:

db= MySQLdb.connect(host='localhost', user='root' , passwd='acrsci00', db='Ornithobase')
