asp for dummies (me)

I'm getting shuffled arround at work, seems I've grown beyond sitting at the help desk helping customers. I now get to work with the applications group.. the people who do databases, website stuff, etc.. This means I need to learn asp (active server pages) which is a MS thing. I know a little about php/sql stuff, but this asp is a whole new game. I'm finding it difficult to learn, but I'm not going to give up.
