Can't instantiate class

[David Mitchell]

Thanks for your prompt reply.

Ok, so If use your first suggestion (db = DataUtil.DataUtil()
), I get this error:

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'DataUtil'

If I try importing the class directly (from DataUtil import DataUtil), 
I get this error:

ImportError: cannot import name DataUtil


Could these errors have something to do with the fact that I am doing 
this through mod_python?

Thanks again,

Dave
