Honestly, If he's willing to pay you to cross train in ASP, why complain? I'm assuming that you have already written a score of reports and tools that will all need to be translated into ASP and who would know the reports better than their author. ASP isn't "that" different from Cold Fusion. Cold Fusion takes care of quite a few loose ends and takes far less time to produce quick apps. So, if your new boss is dead-set on using ASP pick up a few "kill weight" manuals on ASP coding and rewrite one of your tools.
Remeber, coders survive on being able to code. Managers survive on making good business decisions. You may well see a new manager in the not so distant future.

It is mostly because we have a new manager that seems to be such a die hard ASP fan who swears it is better then CF even though he does not even know anything about CF. A little annoying, but I think since he is not the one that is doing any of the coding, he should really go with what us developers are wanting to work with. Maybe I am living in a dream like state when I think that managers will always pick the best product. -----Original Message----- From: Bryan Stevenson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 11:28 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: CF VS ASP <- let the trolling being and on that note you should tell your boss there is a new version of CF coming....all that can be said here is WOW...wait for it...can you say coooooooooooooooooooooool ;-) Bryan Stevenson VP & Director of E-Commerce Development Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. p. 250.920.8830 e.
