Thanks Giga, but that thread shows you how to add a lib to your project, it doesn't show how to make a new lib integral to the IDE. unless just saving it in the folder specified does the job.

Did you have a look at Creating libraries for Basic4android.
and Video tutorial - Creating a simple library

Best regards.

Klaus, thanks for the tip! but youtube is blocked in the part of the world where I am traveling now. will have a look in it when return back home in two weeks.
btw, I suggest that Erel also considers uploading a copy to youku.com. this is the Chinese equiv of youtube... and if he has a Chinese friend then he can xlate the video into Mandarine.. but if he would do that then I hope he takes this step after I finish asking all my questions (just jkg)

1. Start by making a folder for additional libraries. I used: C:\Program Files (x86)\Anywhere Software\AddLibraries
   
2. Under the menu Tools\Configure Paths: enter your additional libraries path and folder name.
   
3. Copy the LibraryName.jar and LibraryName.xml files from the library to your additional libraries folder.
   
4. Start the IDE or right click in the Libs panel and select refresh. You should see the library name in the list.
   
5. The Beginner's Guide is a great read.

MLDev, thanks a lot... you got my pont.
Now
1- I am travelling and will crunch the beginners guide as soon as I get back home.
2- long time ago I worked for Standard Oil Company of CA (Chevron) and they told us that when exploring new fields, they bring not only drilling engineers, but also engineers from other disciplines, because some times they find gold while looking for oil! so one benefits a lot from all answers regardless of the point.
3- Non-members and on-lookers of the forum also benefit from the questions and answers, and become closer to this wonderful programming tool.
4- Not justifying laziness
