Hi,
Sorry, should probably have been more specific - we still have
Master Collection CS3 - so looking for the Flex companion to that so
maybe we can get an upgrade from Flex NN to FB4
Thanks.

If so, which version of Flex was it and did you need to apply / ask Adobe
for the license number for Flex?
FlashBuilder 4 is included in CS5 Web Premium. Not sure about the
Master, but I think my upgrade from CS4 to CS5 was $599, I think. I'm
not sure what it would be for the Master suite.
What you get is FlashBuilder 4 Standard. If you've been using the
trial download, the CS5 serial number won't register it, because
you've probably been using FB4 Premium. FB4 Premium is nice--it has
some profiling and charting tools--but it's expensive (maybe less so
if you have the master suite).
I'm using FB4 Standard, and it has everything I need--code hinting, a
really robust debugger, including easy ways to set watches and
conditional break points, and day-to-day tools. There's a comparison
here<http://www.adobe.com/products/flex/upgrade/>. Oddly, I can't
find a way to buy FlashBuilder 4 standard, except in the CS suite.
Flex itself is, of course, free. You can install it, and use any IDE
you want, like FlashDevelop (I think). I really like the FB4
interface, though.
Cordially,
Kerry Thompson
