In my main container class' constructor, I seem to be unable to create a ZCatalog instance (manage_addZCatalog gives a name error, and it doesn't appear in the method lists in my patched online help). Is it possible to create a ZCatalog object from a ZClass constructor?

It should be. Inside the <dtml-with "createInObjectManager"> part of the constructor, you can probably do (untested): <dtml-with "manage_addProduct['ZCatalog']"> <dtml-call "manage_addZCatalog('id', 'title')"> </dtml-with> I haven't used this syntax for a python Product before, so I'm not sure if this will work as is. It should be a step in the right direction though. (You can tell by looking at the source for the Add list within the management screen.) Kevin
