Hi Rodney,

Let me tell a little history.

During last 2 years we have had "Valentina XCMD" which was able work
With HyperCard, SuperCard and MetaCard and was made as xfcn.

But later MetaCard developers did ask to make special version adopted to
metaCard which will be able for example work with binary data and arrays of
MetaCard. 

To be able do this I was need switch to CODE resource (as required by MC).
So now we have 
    VXCMD for HyperCard based on xfcn resource
    VXCMD for MetaCard based on CODE resource
