OK Dave - Yeah - I got it!

3 Votes for GoFish (NOT the Card game) - and NO Votes for the original Code 
References tool.

But, honestly - I'd still like to figure out why Code References is NOT working 
correctly.

However, more so - I COULD "In theory" replace Code References tool in the VFP 
menu with GoFish - since they BOTH simply run as an App.

Which I think would be the best route to take. So - I'd still like to know how 
to access the VFP menu system to see why it's running the wrong thing instead 
of Code References - and, once I figured that out, I could potentially replace 
it with GoFish...

I even watched a bit of Matt Slay's video about GoFish, and I could listen to 
his voice-over. Sounds like Matt was located in the Southern USA - considering 
his accent.  Was interesting hearing Matt speak, knowing he is no longer with 
us...
