Have a look at this thread. Also, for books, take a look at this thread.

You could also browse over some of the tutorials here.

Finally, if you get stuck with a problem, you can always post here.

I currently have "Sams teach yourself Coldfusion in 24 hours"
written by Ben Forta. It's a good book to start with the basics, which is pretty much where I'm at. I've gone and just bought the ColdFusion MX Bible, Mastering ColdFusion MX by Arman Danesh, Macromedia ColdFusion MX 7 Application Development and Advanced Macromedia ColdFusion MX 7 Application Development both by Ben Forta

Wow, that's a lot of books. Your bookshelf must be bulging. Good luck in learning Coldfusion. It's a very powerful and easy language once you master it.

For example, see the upload article. Show me another language which can upload a file with basically one line of code!

I pretty much learn all of my languages via amazon.com. :-)
My company won't send me to Coldfusion training because it's too much $$$.
