Six years ago I wrote ASP code by hand in an HTML/ASP editor. It was a great
learning experience. Have developed Access Applications the last 5 years and
now am ready to get back to ASP - to - Access web coding. Small to Mid size
sites, no ecommerce, just data and filesharing. What are some of the best
tools out there these days?

Signature

TIA

It depends on what you want - and your budget. Visual Studio 6 has the best
intellisense support for ASP. You may find some 2nd hand bargains on Ebay.
Dreamweaver 8 has very limited intellisense for ASP, but is an excellent
html/xhtml editor with very good support for CSS and now shows the content
of include files. Adobe offer a 30 day trial download. You could, at a
pinch, use the free Microsoft Dotnet editor - Visual Web Developer Express
Edition. Or you could use NotePad/TextPad or another mainly text editor.

I personally use Dreamweaver for ASP and VS 2005 for Dotnet.
