I have 2 different objects, both with the same material... however I want to animate their transparency seperately. So I figure I need 2 seperate Material IPOS, but no matter what I try I can get them to use individual unique IPOS, it just changes both when I try to change one.

Yep, each material can only have one unique Ipo. You're going to have to duplicate that material so each one can have a separate Ipo unfortunately.

Ok, thx... that's the solution I ended up choosing. This seems to go against the idea of data blocks a little. Something to work on in future development. I have read various bits of your blog, and totally agree with the concept "if you don't like it, change it". I'm hoping to work with blender development in the future so have been reading up about the structure recently so I can make improvements and additions.
