Author Testing SSL/HTTPS site

I would like to use the application to test a web
application out of the development enviroment.

Those sites are SSL/Https which prohibit me from using the
record feature unless as it states inthe help file

"During the recording of a Web browser session, secure
(SSL protected) pages will need to have their
authentication disabled. During the playback of the test,
SSL can be used"

I see this as unlikely to happen.
However if I code a test dynamically, it looks like i can
handle the SSL aspects
"Set oSecureConnection = Test.CreateConnection(strServer,
443, True)"

So this may be pretty obvious or stupid, but I'm wondering
how easy it would be to get the best of both words by
recording a test, and then modifying the scripts to run on
one of the Https SSL sites.
Certainly the recorded scripts look to have a standard
structure where I could use search and replace.
