developer version of CF - It part of my nefarious plant to keep Bruce involved with CF. I was just thinking that to set up the dev version of CF takes what 15 minutes? You already have the web server in CF or you can use IIS. 5 minutes to set up the Access data source. Then I'd give it only a few more minutes to set up the form page, and the results/display page. I'm not thinking of a full fledged web app just something quick and dirty that gets the job done on the local machine.
