Product Description
Product Description
"Advanced Programming in Visual Basic.NET", by best-selling authors Bradley & Millspaugh, maintains the strong pedagogy that has been used to teach students how to program in Visual Basic since VB 4.0. Instructors and students like this book because it does not just teach Visual Basic, it incorporates basic concepts of programming, problem solving, and programming logic. "Advanced Programming in Visual Basic.NET" has been completely revised: including the text, website, and instructor's materials.

I've never written a review for a book I've bought from Amazon. But having gone through this book and how it has helped me in my Post Graduate degree I thought I must put fingers to keys. Basically if you know the basics of oop and visual basic but would like to know more about vb.net databases and web services then buy this book.
Having gone through this book I have a good knowledge on database programming with vb.net including junctional tables - parents and child relationship and the same for Web programming. It even has a basic SQL Primer in the appendicies.
The cd has fully working examples of every app which is very useful. It is expensive but belive me when I say its worth the money.

This book has its pearls here and there but it is definitely NOT worth the price. I wouldn't pay $25 for it.
The examples given are really worthless because all they basically do is drag and drop components and controls (almost anybody can figure that out). I would like to see more code, especially in the Database section. I mean the book is OK if you only paid $20 to $30. (Are they really selling the 60-day trial version of VS.NET?)

This book does not flow or build your knowledge in an orderly fashion. You are left to figure things out. Which defeats the purpose of a book. This is a very hard to read book as far as programming books go. The authors could have spent more time "dividing and concurring" the subject matter than just providing the information in chunks for you to workout. I would prefer that my teacher chose a different book. Sincerely.

Format:Paperback
This book is the worst programming book I have ever read. I get much more out of the O'Reilly books, SAM's "teach yourself" series, Peachpit Press, etc... There are so many other options than this. Still, professors have a tendency to recommend books that make good "textbooks" not necessarily good learning devices. That's the only reason my professor selected this... that and he knew the authors. I encourage you to look elsewhere unless it is required.
