Thank you! Take a leaf out of COBOL's data division book, and make a module that has all the globals in it. Just refrain from calling it globals, that is the path to insanity. Then whenever you need the stuff, just import system_globals, and you are done. This has another hidden advantage, in that the system_globals.py can be used to keep all sorts of system wide configuration information. - Hendrik -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
