Visual Web developer vs DW8

> I have to move on to ASP.NET

...then move on to Visual Studio or Visual Web Designer or any of the MS
IDEs.

DW does not and likely will not support ASP.net 2.0

-Darrel

DW has no support for ASP.Net 2.0 which is the framework you would be
designing in, and it had a very rudimentary support for the 1.1 framework.
So unfortunately you are better to learn VWD.

I would recommend building the page design in DW and coding it in Visual Studio. Visual Studio is recommended for .NET development.
