Workflow Action - OnChange script -- Where stored in MetaData?

Question

Help please! I am looking for some scripts in a system in which parts of it are being migrated to another system. 
 I am trying to locate Create Script or OnChange Script populated on a workflow rules actions. 
 I believe I have located the values for Create Script...They appear to be located in the field WkAc_EmailBody. Therefore, I need to confirm that is correct. 
 However, I have not been able to determine where the OnChange Script is located. 
 Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. 
 Thank you!!

Ok, the workflow tables are just plain weird. 
 In the WorkflowActions table you will have 3 columns called WkAc_EmailTo, WkAc_EmailBCC, and WkAc_EmailBody. When you add a rule that isn't of type email, these fields do a different job. It's very poor in terms of design as you have a field that does multiple job which is just a database design "no no" 
 Your create script lives in WkAc_EmailBCC 
 Your on change script lives in WkAc_EmailBody 
 Your validate script lives in WkAc_EmailTo 
 Don't ask me why. The way to find out is to edit a standard workflow that you're not using, alter the script fields on a field and put in a comment like //create //onchange // validate and save and then query the tables looking for them. Hopefully I've saved you the job.

I think this is where Workflow is really weird again... unless Sage have resolved this. I haven't checked as I haven't done much in this area for a number of years. To script workflow to a component, you (certainly used to anyway) create a new component, then go to your workflow and script the workflow to the screen, then go back to your component and save it separately. The workflow is now in your component.
