   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...
