I recently upgraded to CS5 after having successfully used MS Access and Dreamweaver, MS Access and Ultradev, and even MS Access and Drumbeat before both Macromedia and Adobe.
I come to find out that ASP Javascript which is what I have been using is no longer supported. I tried to get asp.net with VB to work but the new dreamweaver would not generate the MMHTTPDB.asp script needed for testing (yes I had the correct directory in my testing server setup).
OK I said... I'll learn Php. Not without learning Mysql you won't said Adobe. No setup available for Php and MS Access.
I Downloaded the FREE Visual Studio Express and in less time than I spent trying to get CS5 to work was up and running generating pages for my site.
I find it quite ironic that I had to give Adobe $199 to have them push me entirely to Microsoft. C'est la Vie!

Looks like your thorough research before mindlessly upgrading to CS5 has saved you time and money in this scenario. Congratulations for doing your homework.

You're absolutely correct....I should have done my homework. I thought I would save some time.
Serendipitously however, I find myself in a better place.

Got to sell the aniquated Coldfusion platform. After all, it is not the client, it's the money!!!
