That's it!  I had rebound 'list' earlier (in error), and though I
deleted the code it must have been "remembered" somehow.  Restarting
PythonWin this morning, there was no error.  Now I've just spent twenty
minutes wondering why  'x.apppend(y)' was raising an
AttributeException! It's going to be one of those weeks...

Thanks Simon
