Think of python objects as being like mobile phones. They only really have a number. Asking what their name is like asking for the name of a mobile phone (bluetooth excepted). A particular mobile phone only has a name when entered into the address book (aka namespace) of another mobile (or whatever) and the choice of name is down to the owner of the address book. Now I'm going to eat my cake. Giles -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
