Either I don't fully understand your question, or I'm misinterpreting what you are trying to accomplish. If you are subclassing A, calling it B, then it _already_ has the properties of A when it was subclassed. However, if you have two instances running, one A, and one subclass of A called B, then you can not access that data in A from B since they are seperate instances. Maybe you could clarify what you are trying to accomplish (example maybe)... Regards, Knight knight@phunc.com On Fri, 6 Oct 2000, Seb Bacon wrote:
I've got a ZClass "A" that subclasses another ZClass "B". I can use the default propertysheets/B/manage method to update B's properties; but how do I access the properties of A through the management interface?
Many thanks
Seb.

Also, you could always import the specific module for your database, and create a db connection, then execute() and fetch() directly. Although, if you are putting this in an external method, it would be wiser to use your existing ZSQL methods ;]

How do I get a zope database connection from an enternal method?
You can access your db using your existing ZSQL Methods by calling them from the namespace passed in, specifically self.
Example:
def myextmethod(self): mfl_id = 3 results = self.sqlCountUsers(mfl_id=mfl_id) for result in results: print result[0], result[3]
Keep in mind that a list is returned, not a dictionary.
