[Zope] Z SQL row to dictionary

[Jerry Westrick]

Thanks for your help, but....


I tried this routine (mythod) both
as a python script and as an External python script.


as a python script I get errors stating that "__" variables are
private...

as external method I get the following errors:

Error Type: AttributeError
Error Value: __dict__
