Hi Jim,

OK, I wondered if it was that or a path problem.

I will probably get in trouble with some OO lawyer, but I instantiate objects, which are instances of classes. But no matter which is correct, I know what you meant.

Regards,

Richard

Hi Richard,
Thanks for asking which error I got. As it turned out, I needed to qualify
that the class I wanted to work with came from my module. I needed to say

import elevator

# Instantiate the Elevator class.

e = elevator.Elevator()

That brings up a question. Do you instantiate classes or do you instantiate
objects? I think that the terminology in the above comment line may be
wrong.

Thanks.

Jim

Hi,
When I try to import code I wrote, I get errors. I took the code and put
it
in the same file as the code that's calling it, so I know it works. I saw

a
tutorial that advises me to edit the registry to make this work. The
tutorial seems to be talking about the version of Python from python.org.

I
have ActiveState Python. I am OK with editing the registry, but I'd
rather
not do it. Is there a way to get this working that doesn't involve
editing
the registry? What is it?

Thanks.

Jim
