Ah - I think I've sorted it out. I can now have data1.function()
or data2.function() etc However, I can still call function() directly: function() which seems very odd Indeed. The only instances of function are within classes data1 and data2, and these definitions are different, so I don't see why I can get away with calling it without reference to a base class - for a start how does it know whivh one to call... will investigate :-p -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
