I'm not sure that this is a solution Ralf, but it fixed something 
here and made the ZSQL advanced tab usable again.
I was having problems importing a folder. Errors like 'KeyError' with 
a crap character were showing up when I tried to import.
I found that in the folder were subfolders with an ID of the type 
'folder.gif', and title 'c://Dan/Images/folder.gif' - ie as though 
someone had uploaded an image, but it had created a folder instead 
(this behaviour by itself is pretty weird).
I deleted these folders, and exported the folder I was interested in.

I then got a clean 2.2.0 Data.fs.in and started up another Zope 
instance (BTW, the excellent HowTo at 
http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/instancehome should be required 
reading for those running multiple Zope sites from a single Zope 
installation...). I then imported the .zexp file and voila, 
everything was working and I could get to my 'Advanced' tab again.

I have no idea whether PTKDemo is in my Data.fs, but this is encouraging! :)
112 % grep PTKDemo Data.fs | more

113 % grep MySQL Data.fs | more
Binary file Data.fs matches

(and the old Data.fs)
116 % grep PTKDemo Data.fs- | more
Binary file Data.fs- matches

If you *don't* have any ID's with 'unusual' characters in them, then 
I guess I can't help you out...

ps Ralf, I've taken the liberty of ccing this to the list as it might 
help others...
