in reply to SPOPS fetch problems
The problem is you're implementing new(). This is already implemented in SPOPS.pm and it does a lot of initialization work there. Additionally, you don't need to put the initialization (etc.) into a class 'MyUserClass' since that class is generated for you when you call SPOPS::Initialize->process.
