What's the difference between short and long recordset fields?

I've seen recordset fields displayed a few ways one being

PHP Code:


		
			
<%=(rsExample.Fields.Item("FIELDNAME").Value)%>

And then the shortcut

PHP Code:


		
			
<%=rsExample("FIELDNAME")%>

What's the difference (if any)? And are there any disadvantages to using the shortcut?

I don't think any differences exist. The only thing is that it's a little bit less obvious exactly what the object is doing, but other then that I don't think it makes any difference.
