Steve, I think you were right the first time is saying

> sqlxb= 'INSERT INTO DTABLE2 VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)'
my copy.copy() has the equivalent effect.
Running this test code produces the output below
import copy
print 'Test 1'
pf= '?,?,?,?'
sqlx1= 'INSERT INTO DTABLE2 VALUES ( %s ) ' % pf
print sqlx1
print
print 'Test 2'
sqlx2= copy.copy(sqlx1)
sqlx3= sqlx1
pf= '?,?,?, ****'
sqlx1= 'INSERT INTO DTABLE2 VALUES ( %s ) ' % pf
print 'sqlx1= ', sqlx1
print 'sqlx2= ', sqlx2
print 'sqlx3= ', sqlx2
== output
Test group 1
INSERT INTO DTABLE2 VALUES ( ?,?,?,? )
Test group 2
sqlx1= INSERT INTO DTABLE2 VALUES ( ?,?,?, **** )
sqlx2= INSERT INTO DTABLE2 VALUES ( ?,?,?,? )
sqlx3= INSERT INTO DTABLE2 VALUES ( ?,?,?,? )
I interpret this to mean that sqlx1 is not a simple string
