    Ummmm...  I SEEM to recall that there is a general problem with the
Help system in Zope instances which have been upgraded from pre-Help days.  
(2.1.2?)  If I climb further out on this dead branch of my memory, I think
the fix has something to do with deleting all your Products from the
Control Panel, restarting, and re-importing any "through-the-web"
(ZClass-based) products.  Take this with a pound of salt, I've been
ignoring the Help threads for the most part.  Back up your Data.fs before
trying this!

Mike.
