Metz, BM, 236 (destroyed in 1944) was a composite manuscript. Part one (saec. IX) contained a copy of the Collectio Dacheriana (version B according to Mordek) on fol. 3r-121v followed on fol. 121v-142v by an addition dubbed Appendix Dacherianae Mettensis by Seckel. Part two (saec. VIIIex, maybe saec. IXin according to Dulong as cited by Mordek) contained a collection in 400 chapters but was already damaged when Seckel saw the codex in 1910.
