All I was trying to do with my feeble code attempt, was to return a reference to the imported module so that I could do...
result = instanceref.main() where main was a function within the import. Having glanced at the code in the import section of the help files all morning, when I actually sat down and read it it turned out the example code was what I needed. Its always the way. Many thanks for taking time out to reply Bengt. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
