It helps to post the actual code and error message you are seeing... >>> import datetime >>> class foo(datetime): ... pass ... Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? TypeError: function takes at most 2 arguments (3 given) >>> class foo(datetime.datetime): ... pass ... >>> d = foo() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? TypeError: function takes at least 3 arguments (0 given) >>> d = foo(1, 2, 3) >>> d foo(1, 2, 3, 0, 0) >>> datetime.datetime(1, 2, 3) datetime.datetime(1, 2, 3, 0, 0) My guess is that the code you posted is not really the code you were runnning. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
