>A fellow developer got a contract to devlop a web application and he asked me if I could do it. I picked up several Wrox books on the subject and got to work. Next, I got hired by a major corporation to do ASP development. What I learned from the Wrox books and the first web app prepared me for what I am now doing. Trying to develop major applications using ASP is very time consuming. So far my present app has over 75,000 lines of code and over 50 forms.

>I have not seen a good ASP book that gets into application development.

Are you calling COM components from the Active Server Pages or is everything done via ASP?
