Okay, I've got that, except that I have a single extension in that
my ZSQL method takes an argument.  I'm trying to call it ala:

  results=self.GetCat (CatID=str(catID))

where "GetCat" is the SQL Method.    

So my external method reads:

  def CategoryPath (self, baseURL, catID):
    while (catID != 0):
      results=self.GetCat (CatID=int(catID))

This isn't working.  I can't tell you if its the argument that's the
problem, as the manifestation is that it can't find the right DB
connector.
