Redefinition a main key in VARVc

Hello. I try to migrate client from 8.1 to 8.5 and I have a problem.

In 8.1 VARVc was redifinited and in main key added additional index.

But if I try run 8.5 with this datadef hal.log tels me next:
"Error 1:redefinition of register VARVc is not allowed, please use RecordAddBegin()/EndRecordAdd()"

How can I solve this case?

Before

MainKeyBegin(Code,0);
KeySegment(Code);

After
MainKeyBegin(Code,0);
KeySegment(Code);
KeySegment(VARGCode);

Maybe try this:

begin
RecordAddBegin(VARVc,"VARVc_custom");
MainKeyBegin(Code,0);
KeySegment(Code);
KeySegment(VARGCode);
EndRecordAdd;
return;
end;

Unfortunately, HAL not support change existing keys in reccordadd block. Only when full redefinition record.

Hello,
How does Your datadef look in 8.1?

Did You try disabling index(DisableIndex("IndexName");) and add again?
