I hear what you're saying, Michael. That's typically the approach I take with anything. I like the cfc idea and will continue to use it, at least with <cfinvoke>, but I'll give another shot at using createObject because it seems to offer a lot of benefit without much more work.
Now as far as using a framework goes...that's going to be a ways off. I have to admit however, that Coldspring that Mike mentioned would be a great boost to productivity since it creates all the necessary code, etc., for interacting with a db, and that is a lot of the work. But that's a little much for me right now. I've got to be able to stay productive (as in making money) while I learn. Thanks for the perspective.
