Hi all

We have found the solution for the down stated problem. Make sure that follwing Flag is set to "Keep", in order to make object groups and Libraries work properly in referenced modules.

Select from Developer200 menu Tools->Preferences->Access Tab Set Subclassing Path to 'Keep' and the references will work, without any problem. By default it is set to 'Remove'.
