the best way to call from another method/script isto call the view() method, 
like so

<dtml-var "kebasdatainstance.view()">

i've added a __call__ method to KebasData (that's still not released yet) that 
will make the call like so:
<dtml-var kebasdatainstance>

i haven't released it because i;m not too sure it works well enough.

it'd be best if you could provide me some data so that i can troubleshoot
an export of said objects would be best.

sorry i can;t help much
