You can use regexps or > the module mentioned earlier by Chris. I think I'm making this unnecessarily complicated. I had used something like:
from spam import TestAddresses ## just for grins Which is something that I almost never do in practice. Also, you pointed out the UC naming convention, which I was unacquainted with, being self-employed, self-taught and a one-man crew who doesn't spend as much time as he should reading PEPs. I'm going to go for the predicate test as second argument to getmembers with something like: def isdata(self,obj,name): """Check if an object is of a type that probably means it's data.""" return (not (inspect.ismodule(obj) or inspect.isclass(obj) or inspect.isroutine(obj) or inspect.isframe(obj) or inspect.istraceback(obj) or inspect.iscode(obj))) and name.issupper() ## Untested code thanks again -- Tim tim at johnsons-web dot com or akwebsoft dot com http://www.akwebsoft.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
