[Zope] weird commit issue

Hi, We've a Py script (Win2000, Zope 2.5.0) that: - loops through a folder looking for certain objects - these objects are copied to a sub folder using manage_clone - then that sub folder is exported using another python script Problem: In the exported file, all copied objects *except* the last one are there. The last one is there in the sub folder. Finally we solved by issuing a commit after all manage_clones and before the export is called. Question: Should we have to do this? Since the whole script runs as a transaction, shouldn't export be able to see all the cloned objects in the sub folder? Any tips and suggestions are really appreciated. - vsb http://vsbabu.org/
