Sue Hove is great!!
I bought this book last week. I was kind of expecting another "demo jockey" visual quickstart book. Instead of showing you what each menu item does...this book takes you through a more tutorial based learning experience. I have found this book to be extremely helpful. I am not a programmer, and frankly have little desire to be one. This book shows you Dreamweavers object oriented approach to creating coldfusion apps through Dreamweavers codegen functionality. I have been corresponding with the author (Sue Hove) and she has informed me that there are really no changes from DreamweaverMX and Dreamweaver MX 2004's codegen functionality. So this is the book to get even if you are running MX 2004 and coldfusion mx 6.1.

A good starter...
This book is a good primer for static HTML designers wishing to make the leap to ColdFusion MX. This is especially true if you're a new or experienced user of Dreamweaver MX.While you won't finish the book and become fully versed in CF development, tags and administration, you will be able to work well with CF developers and their CF templates. This will make it easy to plug the design over a the back-end scripting or vice-versa. The next step in becoming comfortable CF developer would be the "Developing ColdFusion Applications" books by Ben Forta. If you know HTML, start with this book, then move on to the Forta books for an in-depth look at CF and developing applications. Whichever route you choose, don't be discouraged if you struggle with some concepts. Try experimenting and keep developing over time... the only way become proficient in CF. There are a ton of resources, newsgroups and mailing lists for when you get stuck.

Excellent starter book about ColdFusion!
If you want to start learning ColdFusion and are a Dreamweaver MX user, this is the book to get. It will guide you step by step through the basic concepts you need to know to get started. After completing this book you will be ready to move on to one of more advanced books. I bought Ben Forta's book first and tried several times to start learning ColdFusion, and failed. Now, after going through the "Visual QuickPro Guide", Forta's book makes more sence. The best beginners guide out there!
