I wish that was our experience. We are in the processing of moving from CF5 to CF6.1. We have 10 applications to migrate. The code analyzer found few problem; however, we have been changing/testing code for 3 weeks on our MX development box because we ran into so many problems. I think the main issue is that we run CF on Unix against a Sybase database and there doesn't seem to be alot of people with that setup so we had several bugs with every driver we tried and had to wait for bug fixes from the vendors. After 3 weeks of changing code, we are about to move to our user acceptance environment. This has definitely been a painful upgrade with changing named parameters, differences in how NULL is handled, differences in how isDefined works, etc.
