Good luck jake it is interesting to read your experience with .net. Apps do seem to take longer to develop than domino or at least there is extra work upfront during relational db design, although the extra stability is worth it. Re: whether use same or different form for read, edit, new mode is a design decision based on content and the type of controls used on the forms. I have used different forms before just to simplify design and reduce amount of codebehind for a single form for readability.
