Hi Ben, Thanks for your reply. I had concluded as much, but needed to hear it from someone else to be convinced! I would upgrade to CW9, except that I have heard from several folks that they've been unable to link the special SatForms startuplib with CW versions newer than 6. Since a large part of my business is commercial SatForms extensions, and they are the only thing I use CW for, I've stayed with CW6. So, I will just have to do without debugging to PalmSim I guess.
