Great for getting started on some applications

This book is a great start to creating some of the infinite types of real world apps. After every function comes a description of what it does. The only drawback however is that i had to read some of the chapters several times, especially the chapter on DCOM, partly because i'm inbetween being a beginner programmer and an intermediate programmer. The beginning of each chapter gives a synopsis of the situation, which can help create the algorithm needed to solve the problem at hand. In the end of each chapter is some suggestions on what can be added to the program, as well as a summary of the things learned. One last thing, the introductions to each of the chapters can get quite confusing.

Great Source of Code

I like this book for 1) It's a great source of code, 2) I like the writing style, which is thorough (IMHO), 3) The information in it is unique to this volume. It is one of the first books I look into when coding.

Excellent coverage of variety of subjects

The book has some really good code axamples but doesn't just stay on one topic. Good coverage of some Networking with VB. Excellent review of the code listed. One of the better VB books even for a person already familiar with VB. I have looked at many VB boks and I really like this one. Not for real basic beginner.
