Thank you both for help. Well - yes and no :). It's getting more interesting: First, your code: class myrow(): def __init__(self, idict = {}): self.container = idict def __str__ (self): return self.container.__str__() results = [ {'a': 12, 'b' :30 }, {'a': 13, 'b' :40 } ] mystruct = [] for row in results: mystruct.append(myrow(row)) results[1]['b'] = 444 print results # [{'a': 12, 'b': 30}, {'a': 13, 'b': 444}] print mystruct # does not work ok , you should probably define # mystruct's __str__ method properly # But, save for the __str__ thingy, the rest is ok. for row in mystruct: print row # {'a': 12, 'b': 30} # {'a': 13, 'b': 444} And now let's try to swap results with something else: print id(results) # new resultset results = [ {'a': 112, 'b' : 130 }, {'a': 113, 'b' : 140 } ] print id(results) for row in mystruct: print row # {'a': 12, 'b': 30} # {'a': 13, 'b': 444} At first glance (before adding id()) it's a little bit weird. The original object was supposedly "overwritten", but as one can see it has different id then the new one. mystruct still holds references to old object, though. I can handle it and just change original object, but I'm curious if there's a way to "swap" them "on-the-fly".
