easy way how to solve it is to put definition of your choices out of model definition:
CHOICES=((u'1','one'), (u'2',u'two')) class Movie( Relic ): disk_type = models.CharField( 'Type', max_length=8, choices=CHOICES) and then you can import CHOICES whereever you want and reuse it from ......models import CHOICES Donn Ingle wrote: > > > Hello, > In my model, I define the choices for a charfield.
