Hidden Gems in CF Builder

In this session, veteran CFer Charlie Arehart will share dozens of tips and tricks (and a couple traps) for working with Adobe's new ColdFusion Builder IDE. Whether you are entirely new to it, or have used it since its release, there will be items of interest for you. The topics will range from gems in editing code to configuring the IDE, from troubleshooting problems to connecting the IDE to CF servers, and editing code on remote servers.
