Your original question didn't provide enough detail to offer an answer, which is why I asked the question what the dynamic return value should depend on. I am sorry if my conjecture that the return value might depend on the phase of the moon offended you, but my post was not meant to be useless. It was a necessary follow-up question because you didn't define your requirements clearly enough. If the condition upon which the return value is determined can be evaluated at import time and doesn't change henceforth, a simple if statement in the module will serve your need. If the value *really* needs to be re-evaluated every time the name is looked up, you'll need to follow the advice that Tim Hochberg has already given on this thread. Note, though, that that won't prevent the user code from caching the return value and circumventing the re-evaluation. -Carsten -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
