It's also not too hard to support both styles in the same project (which
can be useful for testing during the transition).  You have to take a
project built for one style and manually set up the file types for the
other.  Sorry to be vague, but it's several years since I did this.  You
also end up with two different sets of resource setting locations (the
new dialog inside the CW project IDE and also the constructor
settings) so you have to be careful what you mix and match.  I had
a project with constructor-built forms and app definition but string
resources and bitmap families created in the PilRC format via a
custom-built app (for managing internationalisation with run-time
language selection).

It takes a bit of setting up and generally isn't necessary or desirable
so I'm only mentioning that it's possible as an interim measure.
