[Zope] attribute-less object(assign or del)

[Kate Legere]

It turned out, actually to be easier than I though to correct this - I ended
up trapping the exception whenever one occurred. 

Thanks for all the input.

Katie

This gives us another two potential problem causes.

  * It is likely that you cannot change 'Record' attributes
    in restricted code (such as in 'PythonScript').

    Try in trusted code (e.g. an "ExternalMethod").

  * Maybe, you try to change not a "Record" instance
    (a single hit) but the "Result" instance (representing
    the complete result list). "Result" instances do not have
    any writable attributes.
