Matt,

I found one problem with the replace in the code reference. The replace uses the Uniquid field of a vcx. If you copy a class into an other vcx, rename it and copy it back it will not change its uniqueid. Now the code reference is in trouble. To solve the issue I USE the vcx and do something like
REPLACE UniqueID WITH SYS2015) FOR Platform='WINDOWS'
In general I do not trust the replace, I've tried once years ago and run into some failure. Since this is hard to trace I do It the hard way.
