<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_extra">Thanks, Greg. I'm still a bit confused about the implementation of GetFile without the UUID, though. Is it a bug that this method isn't implemented on all of the Platform implementations? I guess, in any case, it would be better to avoid the confusion by renaming the other method, though, as you propose. I'll do that.</div>
