[Fedora-suds-list] Issue using suds with Sharepoint (CopyIntoItems)

[DINE, TIM]

I've just recently found suds, but have been using python for quite a while now.  Suds looks great.  I'm having an issue with combining suds and sharepoint.  I have been able to get a few different commands to function correctly, like creating a folder, but haven't gotten copyintoitems to work yet.  Getting it to go was the original reason I ended up finding suds.

The documentation seems to suggest that I need to build the XML elements manually and then pass them to the service rather than a string, specifically for the destinationurls.  When I attempt this I do not get any text content in those elements (they just end <DestinationUrls/> rather than being <DestinationUrls><string>some text</string></DestinationUrls>).  Has anyone used the webservices in sharepoint with suds to upload files?  Is there something obvious that I am missing?

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide.
