What /is/ interesting, Akira-san, is that although this does indeed work 
perfectly, I can no longer re-compile by clicking on the "Typeset" icon 
in the PDF window; I have instead to click on the "Typeset" icon in the 
source window as it would seem that TeXworks no longer "knows" which 
file to re-compile in order to re-generate the PDF ...
