Thanks for the help both of you. Got that under control.

  Is there anything that would get in the way of me being able to reference an object attribute, from within a list.

  I have:
   #      one class here

    class BackupSet:
        fileGroupList = []
      
  #      another class here

   class FileGroup:
       sourceDir = ''
       destinDir  = ''
       def __init__(self):
             self.sourceDir = 'c:\folder'
             self.destinDir = 'd:\folder'  


  fileGroup = FileGroup()

  backupSet = BackUpSet()

  backupSet.fileGroupList.append(fileGroup)

  # when i try to reference an attribute here, I just get 'none'

  print bkset.fileGroupList[0].sourceDir                 or
  print "%s" % bkset.fileGroupList[0].sourceDir
      

  thanks
  Steve
