In regards to .NET, DW is a steaming pile of crap compared to VS.NET. They're not even in the same league. Mind you, DW is way cheaper than VS.NET :) But, I'd still buy VS.NET over DW any day of the week. The Professional version is a little bit more than DW, and it contains interactive debugging, a fully featured database front end, great help, intellisense, a better code editor, and the higher editions have design tools that DW will probably _never_ have. Or, I can get VS.NET standard for < $100, which is far, far cheaper than DW. Or heck, I can get Primal Code for $249, I can then code in .NET, php, and CF, and a whole bunch of other languages. Or, I can get Eclipse for free, and do what I want with it. Point being: MM has a heck of a lot (and I mean a LOT) of work to do with DW before it becomes a serious contender in the IDE market. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=t:4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm?link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Your ad could be here.
