Replying to myself... Oddly enough, I'm actually getting two copies of the images (imagename and copy_of_imagename). If there are two images, then I will end up with 4 image objects in the destination object. Here's the python method that I'm using: def candp(fobj, tobj, REQUEST): "Copy and paste" ids = fobj.objectIds() if not ids: return cdata = fobj.manage_copyObjects(ids) tobj.manage_pasteObjects(cdata, REQUEST) Any idea why I would get *two* copies of everything from this?

Hi,

Last week, there was an exchange going on because I was having trouble copying and pasting in DTML (or Python) from a Folder to a ZClass instance. The thread started with http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope-dev/1999-August/001248.html

It looks like the problem is that I was creating the ZClass instance and doing the copy/paste operation all at once. If I use one DTML method to create the new objects, and then a second method to do the copy/paste, everything works just fine.

Should there be a problem pasting objects to a new object within the same transaction?

Kevin
