Thanks Ben for that beautiful piece of info.

Yikes!! :-) Out of curiosity, could anyone tell me what are the 
prices for CW9 ? And if I already have CW v4.0.1, how much would it 
cost for me to upgrade to v4.2.8 ? I guess 4.2.8 costs something like 
$396.00. Is it? (I am sorry but I dont wanna go to metrowerks site 
and keep searching...hey, its such a boring activity!! :-P )
