Actually, there are many features and functions of CF 4.5.2 that I haven't had the need to explore...but with every project / website, I try to learn a little more about something will add to the site and its functionality.
Most of my projects are basic websites...add, update, delete information...nothing real complex...Email newsletters, automated notices, automated tasks...the real trick in making all the functions useful is getting the clients to make use of what I put in! Clients can be so lazy! Rick -----Original Message----- From: Jordan Michaels [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 02, 2005 12:39 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Cold Fusion Gettin Hot?

Has that stopped you from being productive with CF 4.5? I do certainly hear what you're saying though. Change is a pain - and unless you feel it's worth your effort then why bother? -- Warm regards, Jordan Michaels Vivio Technologies http://www.viviotech.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
