Newbie Tags

As a newbie, you can expect to hear comments about "newbie tags". You may hear "Oh, I'd never use CFINSERT or CFUPDATE, I only use SQL within CFQUERY". If you follow a discussion on this you won't see any strong technical cases against them and when I've pushed the discussion, it ends up being admitted that problems haven't been seen since 4.5 but "SQL is much more flexible and powerful".

Many ColdFusion developers have learned CF by going through examples found in big fat books that typically will run you through an INSERT action within CFQUERY and then introduce CFINSERT. The process is repeated with CFUPDATE. This a great approach as it provides a greater understanding of what is happening in these database actions while also introducing the reader to two sets of tools in the toolbox.

A recent CFDJ article listed problems with using CFINSERT and CFUPDATE. The arguments against the "newbie" tags were based on the assumption that a coder was either unable or unwilling to write SQL code. Below is a summary of the arguments with a rebuttal based on an assumption that the coder could do SQL code when needed.
