OK, good.

Thanks, I could use that but:

What I meant is that I am using TALES of Formulator to get the
items for a SELECT-statement from a database.

This is calling a python-script like the following:
python:form.listchains(CustomerCompany)
CustomerCompany is a dtml-let in the main URL that called this =

Formulator Form.
This is obviousely wrong as Zope complains that
global name 'CustomerCompany' is not defined
 =

Mind you I am trying to learn Zope and Phyton at the same time
here, so the solution/explanation is probably simple

Thanks a lot for your kind response so far
