Hi Lelio,

Yes, you could go through the procedure you stated.  You would be back  
to where you started though.  Keep in mind that the CCM Engineering  
Specials are cumulative, unlike Unity.  ES09 contains all the fixes  
starting from ES01 through ES08 and of course the fixes that go into  
ES09.

HTH,
Kevin
