Not specifically. The problem is that you're execing the code, and the locals and globals are two different namespaces, as Peter suggested. Since the locals namespace is not associated with a function, the compiler evidently doesn't generate closures for it, and thus the lambda (which has its own locals namespace) can't see it. That's my take, anyway. Somebody else may have better insight than me. Cheers, Ian -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
