Migrate Data Standard Customizations

Align Version Number

Many customization files reference the Vault Client installation path, which includes the version number. Use an advanced text editor to find and replace Vault <previous version> with Vault <target version> in all files under Vault <release>\Extensions\DataStandard\.
