it should work, but why do iget errors and errors!!
26 Aug 1996
Format:Paperback
I was going to make a program for a very important company here in
Uruguay based upon this book, but oops, surprise.
You make a .exe file, run the progam and try to insert some accounts
and some transactions and the program never works. I started to analize the code
and in some places there were calls to fields in tables
that never ever existed, fields in tables that where never initialized
provoking errors everywhere, etc etc....
My question is this one: ¿Should the program run correctly,
or should i use the code as the skeleton for anotherone?, which implcates that i should
overview all the source code.
thank you very much

Good overview, but unusable
11 Nov 1997
Format:Paperback
This book looks great on the surface, but is unusable for writing an accounting application in VB. The A/R payments only allows a single payment for each invoice. The invoice module doesn't allow invoices to be reprinted. Some good ideas and code examples for using data access objects though, and I like the way theprogram allows the user to create multiple data files for different companies. Plan on writing your VB accounting app from scratch though. Sorry Jack.

Buggy software make it unusable.
18 Dec 1996
Format:Paperback
Do not buy this book unless you are prepared to spend some time de-bugging the software. As supplied on the disk, it will not work. Too bad, because the general format could provide a good framework for some custom accounting. It bears some resemblance to the old Osborne Accounting Software.
I contacted Sams Publishing on 12/12/96 and they have no plans to fix it, a very poor response for what I thought was a reputable company
