    I've recently realized that I'm lagging behind a bit in the technology game. I've been so quagmired with Work and School that I haven't had the time to teach myself something up to date. I've decided to amend that. Any suggestions? WPF & Silverlight are both on my list of must learns. I'm looking for things that are more and more in demand by the market.

                      SSRS, MOSS, SSIS etc. Then with new SQL 2008 out now you can learn that as well.

                            I HATE Sharepoint programming. But it is a skill in demand. There little in the way of good documentation and examples, plus Sharepoint is buggy and debugging is brutal. You spend more time figuring out plumbing then you do writing code. I'm not sure if WPF and Silverlight are going to take off. I'm still waiting to see if that happens with them. Not everything MS pushes pans out like ASP.Net has.

                                      I have no comments. You've not had to fix as much crap VB5-6 code as I had to. The horrors.

                                          We are always looking for SAS programmers. I have started studying it myself, but you have to be a freak'n statistical analyst to understand this stuff (which I'm not). 2 cents.

                                          I've been using SAS for the past three months. It was quite a paradigm shift and date handling is just a real pain - you have a point though - SAS programmers are rare and in demand.
