> #----------------
> from Products.PageTemplates.ZopePageTemplate import ZopePageTemplate

> def files2zpt(self):
>     for fname, fobj in self.objectItems('File'):
>         self._setObject(fname+'_zpt', ZopePageTemplate(fname+'_zpt', 
> str(fobj.data)))
>     return 'ok'
> #-----------------

> 4. Go back to ZMI and to 'Myfiles/' folder and create
 'External method' 
> there
> by simply filling all fields in the add form as 'files2zpt'

> 5. Click on your new External method files2zpt in ZMI and 'Test' it :)

> Thats all

Thank you so much! Worked like a charm ;)
