Be careful. I did this earlier this year, and the results have been
"interesting".
I bought the Corporate Edition 3.x upgrade for $249. It worked fine,
though there were some bugs. When I reported the bugs, they were quite
helpful in getting me new versions that fixed most of the problems, but
some problems were only going to be fixed in version 4.0.
It turned out that version 4.0 required another $249 upgrade fee (I got
one copy free, but they still want $500 to upgrade the other two).
Version 4.0 doesn't work with files generated with the Quick-C version
of 3.x, so if you've added any of your own code, you get to put it
back.
Also, I really wouldn't recommend CASE:W over WindowsMaker for a
beginner. I like CASE:W myself, but mostly because of the advanced
features.
