pickle problem:cant reload object saved with binary option

[Marshall]

Thanks, now I have a new problem.  It still works without the binary
option.  I think I have the organization of my data screwed up
somehow, but I don't understand why it works without the binary, and
breaks if I turn it on.  It doesn't matter if I use pickle or cPickle,
I still get errors.  The object I'm pickling is self.info=crccvars()
Thanks in advance for any insight.

	def save(self,file='crcc.sav'):
		blah=open(file,'w')
		cPickle.dump(self.info,blah,1)
		blah.close()
	def load(self,file='crcc.sav'):
		print 'print self     :',self
		print 'print __name__ :',__name__
		print 'print self.info:',self.info
		print ''
		blah=open(file,'r+b')
		self.info=cPickle.load(blah)
		blah.close()
		self.buildlist()

each time I open the app, save, then load and here's what I get ...

print self     : <__main__.crcc instance at 7b3830>
print __name__ : __main__
print self.info: <__main__.crccvars instance at 7b6df0>

Exception in Tkinter callback
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "C:\Program Files\Python\Lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py", line 764, in
__call__
    return apply(self.func, args)
  File "new.py", line 250, in load
    self.info=cPickle.load(blah)
ImportError: No module named __main__
