Didn't work, but I went back and looked at the FoxCode table directly

USE (_foxcode) AGAIN ALIAS foxc SHARED

and noticed a difference. The original record had script in the Data field that returned the same as the expansion, which I had tried through the Intellisense Manager without useful results. However, the Cmd field for the original was set to "{}". When I added this to the new record, it worked as well.
