This is great! I do both design and development and jump back and forth between DW and CFEclipse, so this will really come in handy. Thanks Aaron!

Welcome Tony. Keep an eye out for updates to as I add more hints to the dictionary. I also do a lot of design work as well as programming so that is why I made the code hints. Glad others will benefit from them too!
