Well you may have had the pre CW Pro release which came out last year.  
The Pro release integrates a lot of things between the environments 
(projects, etc.)  CW has been very good at fixing bugs/enhancing.  You can report 
bugs via the website or on the news group.  Also, if you download the 
"Lite" version, I don't believe it's Pro-like in it's capabilities.

Personally, I don't like VC++ (not only because it's MS).  You're pretty 
much limited in having to use MFC/MSL; and the IDE is fairly painful.  If I had 
to choose one Windows environment it would be Borland's C++ Builder.  Luckily 
I don't have to choose :-)
