Yes, that solved this problem, thank you. Two other things still don't work:

Moving with the tab key through the table cells only works after the first change.

And, more important: in the setData method the dataChanged signal is emitted:

def setData(self, index, value, role):
...
    self.emit(QtCore.SIGNAL('dataChanged'), index, index)
    return True

and in the __init__ method of the main window this is connected to a method of this window:

self.connect(self.model, QtCore.SIGNAL('dataChanged(const QModelIndex &, const QModelIndex &)'),
             self.ausgeben)

But this doesn't work, self.ausgeben (which prints a message to stdin) isn't called.

What's wrong here?

I didn't find an example for an editable model subclassed from QAbstractTableModel. Did I overlook it?

Thank you,
Sibylle
