Maybe you should read a bit about Python classes and built-in functions like "dir()", "type()", "vars()", ... http://docs.python.org/tut/node8.html#SECTION008300000000000000000 http://docs.python.org/tut/node11.html http://docs.python.org/lib/built-in-funcs.html Just start an interactive Python session and play with the object you are trying to explore. That should get you going. Stefan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
