First thing:  The basic tutorials (in the "Help" section and the 
video tutorials at the AB website) will take you a long way towards 
getting comfortable with the software.

>From there, use what you learn to do a small number of specific 
things that are important to you, the very top of your "priority" 
list.  Once you have things set up the way you want in those basic 
areas, then you can branch-off into other more complex areas.

There are tons of coding examples available, and a lot of times you 
don't have to re-invent the wheel to get what you want, you can often 
just copy and paste formulas or the pieces you need.

As you get more confident, you'll see how others have solved 
different coding problems and start to understand how you can modify 
what they've done to achieve other tasks you want AB to perform.

JMO and FWIW.


Luck,

Sebastian
