Hi Peter,
Can't make WhilFest (sigh). I think my next conference will be Dev Connections in Spring in Orlando. As to your underline problem, I go back to my point that the find and replace text is the same and maybe the replace is not kicking in because of that.
I'm going to play with this problem a bit and if I find a solution I'll reply back.
