I found the solution... use _.getitem(name) this took some book flipping through some basic methods of zope modules in 'The Book of ZOPE' by Beehive. A pretty good book for beginners

I know how it works. Creating objects in a folder is not a problem to me. My problem is the folderish object which I'm trying to find with a string input. If you've read my previous message, the server output error with name.manage_addFile('point', 'a point') because name is a str object and does not have manage_addFile. I understand this. But name is an id to an exsisting folder that I want to access and do operation inside. how would I modify name.manage_addFile('point', 'a point') into a working statement? ----- Original Message ---- From: Andreas Jung <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Allen Huang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Zope <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, January 7, 2007 4:06:27 PM Subject: Re: [Zope] saving/creating an object to an exsisting folderish object --On 7.
