I'm not convinced! I am a very experienced programmer (30+ years, multiple languages) and I'm finding that the simple stuff is straight forward, but the things you need to do for an industrial strength application are a lot harder. It seems that by burying many features into the .Net 2.0 controls, it's a lot harder to do things that aren't described on the "surface" of the control. And no book I've found is adequate. I learn from reading books, from brute force testing, from many web searches and pfrom osting questions (few of which seem to get answered). At this point if I had to develop something quickly I'd use either old ASP or Coldfusion.
