Hi there, as I wrote in the heading, I cannot do the above actions with my instances of ZClass. At first, I've got a ZClass NewsContainer, which subclasses ZClasses: ObjectManager. In that NewsContainer I have got a second ZClass NewsItem which subclasses DTML document. I tried to rebuild such a structure with the same inheritances as dummyContainer and dummy, and cut... worked perfectly. Can I set somewhere an option explicitly which I set by accident for my NewsContainer? Note: I create my News Items automatically by evaluating a form... Also the id is taken automatically by a kind of time stamp which results in a nine digit number. Neither can I cut... my News Container nor any of the News Items - so I suspect that somewhere in the News Container ZClass is the problem. I get the following artless error message: The object tickerNews does not support this operation. The same for a NewsItem: The object 984124146 does not support this operation. Any ideas, suggestions, advices etc.? Thanks. BTW: Nobody answered to my posting yesterday: ( http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope/2001-March/084989.html ) It was the thing if really only managers can add, edit, delete (i. e. manage) users. This morning I read in a response of Dieter Maurer that he assumed it to be a bug. Is there any fix yet - or will there be one in the nearer future?
