I am trying to use the Python csv module to import a csv file into zope and then write the result to a RDBMS. The csv module requires an iterable file but the fileupload instance returned by:

file=REQUEST.form("filename")

Does not seem to be iterable. Is there a way to make it so?

Mmm, I think you should log an issue in the collector that FileUpload instances should be iterable. In the mean time type you can convert it to StringIO instance: file=REQUEST.form("filename") from cStringIO import StringIO iterable = StringIO(file.read()) -- Roché Compaan Upfront Systems http://www.upfrontsystems.co.za
