title: AttributeError: 'QTextEdit' object has no attribute 'text'
body: <p>Sometimes I need to make multiple copies of code with incrementing numbers.
  In a form I'm coding, I need to make upwards of 12 checkboxes, each of which requires the following code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    self.checkBox1 = QtGui.QCheckBox()
      self.checkBox1.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(20, 20, 70, 17))
      self.checkBox1.setObjectName(_fromUtf8("checkBox1"))
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The script below enables me to avoid the boring task of manually changing the numbers for each checkbox.
  I just copy the 3 lines above into the windows clipboard, and then...
  I insert "checkBox" into the first field in the form, "1" into the second field, and 12 into the third field.
  When I hit the "ok" button, the 12 sequentially numbered copies of the 3 lines appear in the 4th field in the form.
  I hope this provides some help to other people.
                       Marc</p>
  
  <p>Here's my code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    # -*- coding: latin-1 -*-
