I have created a Product, and that product has three ZClasses, CS_Person, 
CS_Class and CS_Household. Each has attributes that I want to track.

I played with the ZooExhibit tutorial and got that functional and updating 
class information. I have also done other tutorials in the ZopeBook dealing 
with page templates, DTML, etc...

I am still confused on one thing with the ZODB. How can do I relate a 
CS_Person to a CS_Class? I assumed that I would do it by the id. Please 
correct me if I am wrong, or if their is a better way of doing it.

In CS_Class I have two attributes, 1 is teacher, string and the other is 
substitute, string. I am assuming I will place the id's of a CS_Person into 
those attributes.

Is that correct or am I totally off in left field?

Thanks,

Jeremy
