Yikes!

But thanks ... I think I can hack it into submission.

And here's a followup question:

If I want to make a custom Properties view for a specific ZClass, how
do I proceed?  Just create an additional method for the class and add it
under Views?  And if I do this, is there any kind of DTML templete
(sort of like the default add and addForm methods) that I can work
from?  And do I need to go this far if I (for example) simply want to
change the display order for existing properties?

Many thanks (as always) for any answers you have...
