If the last you used was CW8, then that would explain it...

Our company has been building our Win32 projects via CW9 for years now and
will continue to for at least another year or two simply because it lets us
devs develop fully in a Mac OS X environment (vs. Visual Studio under
Windows).

IMHO, the only things CW has on Xcode 2.4 is:
  - better large file opening & editing
  - symbol coloring/highlighting (speculated to be in Xcode 3)
  - integrated file comparison
  - richer find/replace


However, I digress... Let CodeWarrior R.I.P. and let's get back to work...
