Hi sneekapeak,

Well, as soon as you start talking databases, need to you know the language like, php/MySQL, asp/access, perl, cgi etc.

Even if you're not sure, go here:

sometimes the best way to learn is to download someone elses program and rip it apart.

You can do fairly sophisticated dynamic data work using DWMX or Ultradev without having to delve into any code. After a while you will run up against limitations at which point you'll need to look at languages/methodologies:

CGI - dead

Perl - dead

.asp - big developer community, widely used, very good choice especially if you already know VB.

php - big developer community, widely used, free, tends to be used with other free products like MYSql - has some limitations when it comes to multiple webservers and scaleability.

jsp - powerful, harder to learn.

ColdFusion - powerful, easiest to learn, small developer community, expensive.

I am studying ColdFusion - I'm thinking asp.net might have been a better choice.

MX copes with asp perfectly well on its own for me..
