[reportlab-users] Beginner's preppy puzzle: call to templatemodule.get() raises AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'get'

[Boar Gules]

Thanks.

I wasn't versioning files at that stage, but it's pretty clear there must 
have been a syntax error in the def statement that caused it not to be 
recognized. I see that doing it the other way, calling getOutput() on a 
.prep file with a def statement gives a helpful error message.

Just the help I needed.

Regards

The 'new' version has been in the code for many years.  Which function
is available depends on the first line of the .prep file.

If you declare a module with {{def(arg1, arg2 etc)}} at the top, you
can only call it with get() not getOutput()
