Your instance of an FTC must contain code that tells the FTC how
to handle specific custom objects when they are read in. See the
XmlObjectCreate event in the FTC on the main test window. The
purpose of this code is to translate an XML tag into a custom
object when the base FTC does not recognize the tag.
If you can see the "FTCustomHyperlink" tag in the XML stream that
you extracted from the FTC, then what I said is probably what you
are running into in that you need to add this glue code.
