Going from GoLive 7 to Dreamweaver CS3

Within the next week my work place is forcing me to switch from Mac to Vista. With it I will be getting the Creative Suite CS3. Currently I am designing websites in Golive 7. What challenges will I be facing when I convert my GoLive 7 websites to Dreamweaver CS3? Also, is Dreamweaver totally different or will I be able to stumble my way through it enough to make decent websites?

Thanks

All in all it's a very strong web creation app (some say stronger than GL), but it is completely different from what you are using now. Definitely pick up the Classroom in a Book and any other DW tutorials to minimize your down-time.

You will be able to create some fantastic stuff with it, but it will take some time.

See if your company will pay for a few months of a service such as lynda.com. The online training videos could make a huge difference on the learning curve. Do you rely on menu machine in Golive? If so, there isn't a version for Dreamweaver (yet)

Thank you for the suggestions. Yes I do rely on menu machine ... that could be a big problem.
