    1. COIt would be great if you could post more of your code. Import errors do not always appear cause the class/method ("poll" in this case) is missing from module. It can also appear cause there are other (import) problems in the file you are importing from.

    2. COYou're going to have to show your directory structure, and where you care calling the python shell with respect to the `polls` folder. Also, the content of the `models.py` file will help.

    3. COThat error generally would indicate that `polls.models` does not include anything by the name of `Poll`. Doublecheck that you're importing from the location you're expecting. For example, `import polls.models; print poll.models` in the interactive shell.

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
