yo're looking at this too deeply or something... it appears that there's a
simple serial number being used... it is incremented each time one is
pulled... the problem is that with all your switching back and forth from
package to package and reinstalling and such, the counter starts over each
time... ask steve where the counter is stored so you can edit it to a higher
value and the duplication of serial numbers will be thwarted... i don't know
if it is VFIDO that is putting the MSGID into the messages or not... i would
think NOT because it wouldn't be able to properly support the REPLY control
lines but anyway, just figure out how to change that number and then keep up
with that file in case you decide to switch again or have to reinstall VADV
again...
