My organisation is (finally) looking at replacing Frontpage with Dreamweaver.
As we've been looking to do some basic database and ASP work on the site I thought that Dreamweaver UltraDev would be the way to go, but can someone tell me if this package is essentially the same thing as Dreamweaver 4 but with added bells and whistles? Or would we need to also invest in Dreamweaver 4 to run alongside UltraDev?
Most of the work we will be doing on the site I imagine will be standard creation and updating of web pages and doing re-design work to re-launch the site.
Any tips would be most helpful.
Thanks

You are correct, you don't need a seperate version of DW as UltraDev is a complete package. I've just downloaded the trial myself to see what it's like.

I spoke to Macromedia some time ago about this exact question and, as far as I could understand, UltraDev is an enhanced Dreamweaver which handles the ColdFusion database markup language.
If you're going to be using ColdFusion, get UltraDev; if not, DW4 will do just fine for you.
Could be more to it, but that's what I understood.
