RE: [item-code] in buttonbar

Since you are embedding the [item-code] within an [area] command and it
works if the product code is hard coded, you may want to check the section
"New and Old Style tags" in the documentation. It discusses parsing order
and why embedding a tag within another tag does not sometimes work.
