Answer
You can add migStatus=DoNotOverload to a method in a custom IDF or with a Refactor/Migrate command.

<accessor id="Cell" type="Variant" migStatus="DoNotOverload" nPram="6" migpattern="%1d.get_Cell(%2d,%3d,%4d,1,1)"> |
You may use compile/refactor/fixtype:
| Code Block |
|---|
<refactor>
<FixType identifier="APPCommon.SearchForWindow.WholeTitleFoundOUT" status="ByRef" type="String" />
</refactor>
NOTE: type="String" is added because FixType will suppress the automatic type inference to string so you need to do it here.
While you are at it, you may want to add a fixtype for SwitchTo:
<FixType identifier="APPCommon.SearchForWindow.SwitchTo" type="Boolean" /> |
