The best Visual Basic book written

Programming in Visual Basic 6.0 is by far the best book for the beginning VB programmer. I still use the book today for quick reference. I tried other books and they just don't come close to this one. Concepts are clearly explained and there are plenty of examples in the book to practice your VB skills. I highly recommend this book.

The best Visual Basic book

I used to programming in Cobol and I did not know to programming in Visual Basic when I read this book help me a lot. Actually I'm coding in Visual Basic and all my foundation is from this book. However, I believe it is the best books for beginner and low advanced programmer. All the code are easy and simple to understand.

A great book for BEGINNING programmers...

This book seems to get poor reviews for some reason. This book is a great value because of its price and easy to use format. It is true that this book seems to be geared for BEGINNERS, but Visual Basic is a pretty BEGINNER style of programming. If you have programming experience, you may want to try more challenging books. If you are new to Visual Basic or programming altogether, this book is for you. It even comes with a CD which gives you a VISUAL BASIC 6.0 program to use! Overall the value is super. How many computer text books with the program included can you find for this reasonable of a price. So as others may find this book to "simple," I like the overall value, easy readability, and format of this book.

It is all about standards!

I teach VB in a local Community College and I just love this book. Why? For one thing the book conforms to industry standard naming conventions. This is important and is missing in all of the other texts I have considered. You learn good programming from good programming examples and this text is full of them. Each chapter has a step by step learning within the chapter and a hands-on-example at the end of the chapter. There are lots of projects to choose from at the end of the chapter so if you can make the assignment simple or more advanced to fit your needs. I think students who actually do the in-chapter step-by-steps can learn the material on their own if they happen to miss my great class;)

Extremely helpful for all Visual Basic programmers

This book contains all the essentials for Visual Basic. The examples are extremely helpful and easy to understand. A must have for all Visual Basic programmers.
