On Zope 2.1.6, Zodbcda (3.1.0b2 newest... I think), WinNT: I have some old ZSQL Methods which use the REQUEST object to store some variables. I seem to be getting a name error when I try these with the newer zodbcda... not with the sybaseda or the old Zope and old zodbcda. For example: --- <!--#unless "_.str(ColumnValue)[0] == '[' and _.str(ColumnValue)[-1] == ']'"--> <!--#call "REQUEST.set('ColumnValue', [ColumnValue])"--> <!--#/unless--> <!--#with REQUEST--> ........ --- I get a NameError when it does the REQUEST.set. Can you believe it!? Zope legacy code... :) I have lots of these ZSQL Methods, so I don't really want to change all the logic... but if there is a simple way to pass in the REQUEST object or fix the DA that would be nice. Anyone with similar problems? Thanks, Alex. 1010011010 0 Digital Garage 1 Alex Schonfeld 0 alex@garage.co.jp - pear 1 090-4429-2323
