If you're running test1.py as your main module, then it's not part of a package, so the relative import should indeed fail as you mention. OTOH, something like: $ python -c'from temp import test1' from the parent directory of temp should work fine. Since you don't give us the exact command line you're trying to execute, it's impossible to guess exactly what you're doing. Alex -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
