Customer Review: I purchased this book based on the good reviews it has received so far here on Amazon. After going through the book I have to say I am dissappointed. This book gives a very brief summary and example on different subjects while jumping all over the place and not going into to much detail on any... more info
Customer Review: This book saved me! After looking through several other books and numerous web researches I was about to jump out of the window, but thank God this book came along. It answered my questions relating to the use of collections which many other books simply touch upon without sufficient explanations... more info
Customer Review: I've enjoyed reading this book as it is aimed at beginner to intermediate programmers with details that will instill in a person's mind. The topics are well covered without boring the reader, and a lot of interesting and important topics are well discussed. Highly recommended and looking forward to... more info
Customer Review: The book is great once you know your way around. However, the coding style is very poor. It looks more like code for VB6ers who are too dumb or too lazy to switch to .NET but want to use it anyway to get rid of the "Wanna-be coder" attribute.

Customer Review: This is POORLY written book. Many sample programs do not work or even compile. Many of the variables still use the name "RDO" instead of ADO. Obviously, the author(s) never tested their sample programs, because they do not run. So be careful what book you buy. You could waste $....

Whether you are biginner or intermediate, you really need this book if you want to master the concept and skills of programming in vb.net. Even advanced programmers will discover things they have never thought about using this... more info
Customer Review: For all things except CCReations and VBOOP there really is a single book that covers it all for beginners to severely advanced coders. I first bought the VB3 edition and the VB4 edition is still the first grabbed book whenever I hit any non-oop walls. Graphics & palettes, optimizations, and a... more info
