I set aside 21 days to learn C#/.NET using this book as a source; bad idea. It started off well but I soon realised it's absolutely ridden with mistakes, including errors in the code and at least one completely missing code sample. Of course, if you fail to finish a chapter because you can't get round the problems, then you won't have all the necessary knowledge for when the topic arises again, so you don't finish *that* chapter...and so on. Obviously the proof-readers for this one were looking to get down the pub early.

Oh dear, where to begin with this book. I'm a novice at programming (before this book I'd only done some C++) so was hoping this book would help get me up to speed in .NET. Unfortunately it was a huge dissapointment.
Firstly in the blurb it states that you don't have to have any previous knowledge of a programming language, but then continually throughout the book it assumes you are proficient in Visual Basic 6. The structure of the book is complete trash, you only learn about declaring variables on day 8 yet on day 4 you were writing and deploying applications. The author has the cheek to state that if you copy his examples exactly you will receive no probelems, that would be a complete lie as several of his examples need to be edited to work. And my final critisism is that the author states that he has help files and examples on his website which are required for some of the exercises in the book, oh yeah this website doesn't exist and from other users comments I don't think it has ever existed.
So in summary I wouldn't recommend anyone buying this book apart from someone who wanted to inflict misery upon themselves. Come to think, of it based on this book I wouldn't recommend anyone buy a any book by this author "Jason Beres".
If you are a beginner and need a good starting place I recommend the "...In Easy Steps" series of books. They are to follow yet very informative.

Gives a good coverage of visual studio .The review says that you can find everything in it, in the help files .Good luck.
Searching 1.5Gig. of help files and going of in hyperlinks and getting lost is a thankless process. If you want to learn visual Studio in a reasonable and painless period of time .Get the book.
