Adding the VB profile package to a model (Visual Basic code)
* 
• To add the VB Profile to a model, you require Database Write access permissions to the Model's Database.
• Do not make changes to the VB profile. Any changes you make will be lost when the profile is updated.
You can create Tag Definitions outside of the VB profile, and link those Tag Definitions to Stereotypes in the VB profile. When the VB profile is updated, the links will not be broken.
• Do not create copies of the VB profile within a model, or create copies of the VB profile through XMI Import/Export. The copies of the VB profile will not work correctly and you will not be able to update the copies through the Update All Profiles command.
To add the VB profile package to a model:
1. From Modeler, open the Model to which you want to add the VB Profile package.
2. On the Tools menu, click Add Profile.
3. Select the VB entry, and then click OK.
The VB Profile package is created in the Model as a protected Package, as indicated by the gray icon.
