We extend a result of M. Tamm as follows:Let $f:A\to ℝ,A\subseteq {ℝ}^{m+n}$, be definable in the ordered field of real numbers augmented by all real analytic functions on compact boxes and all power functions $x\mapsto x^r:(0,\infty )\to ℝ,r\in ℝ$. Then there exists $N\in \mathbb{N}$ such that for all $(a,b)\in A$, if $y\mapsto f(a,y)$ is $C^N$ in a neighborhood of $b$, then $y\mapsto f(a,y)$ is real analytic in a neighborhood of $b$.
