Brian, I use the default constructor given to me by creation of a ZClass. To make it realistic, I have a propertysheet that has a few properties in it. When you createInObjectManager, the Catalog gets called, soyou have to call reindex_object again to get the propertysheet to be in the Catalog. And then I redirect. There's not absolute_url call, and it's getting indexed from where it is in the ZODB tree. (no acquisition) Have you followed those steps with a fresh Zope? It doesn't give you two different Catloged urls? Jason Spisak
