Hi Grimmwerks
There are a couple of methods that you could break the link. You could set
the linked property to false ie. member("someScriptMember").linked = false.
Conversely you could copy the script to the clipboard and paste it into a
new member, delete the original and move the script back into its original
place. Sometimes even pasting the copied script over the original script
member breaks the link. Just some ideas.
Sincerely
Mark
