Great book for step by step application development!
15 May 2006
Format:Paperback
This book is great for a VB beginner or for the more experience programmer. This book will teach you chapter by chapter how to create effective visual interfaces. The book starts by identifying the basic concept of visual basic and then builds on those concepts by teaching more intermediate programming techniques.
What sets this book apart from its pears is the author's dedication to detail in explaining all concepts, the end of chapter exercises that let you apply what you just learned, and the index which is very good and makes referencing a breeze.
I highly recommend this book.

Worst Book Ever
30 Aug 2006
Format:Paperback
I signed up for an online class at Rio Salado just this past month. Mind you, I'm just a beginner but am surrounded with programmers at work so I am doing fine. I also have been working out of the Microsoft VB 2005 Step by Step book and am 1/2 way through it with no issues. Well, the class demands this Visual Basic.Net Programming, 2nd Edition Jeffrey Tsay book so I had to get it.
Let me just say, after the 1st chapter I was already feeling the pain. This author jumps around way too much and he's quite hard to follow. He doesn't say, "now try this code, or " write this code." Instead he mentions "the code should look like this."
Ohhh I see, after reading ahead and getting lost, that I was suppose to code that! On top of the terrible instructions comes the lack of examples. I was getting so lost I went back and forth from this book to my Microsoft book, what kind of junk is that? Sad to say, after getting frustrated every time I read this book, I said forget it and dropped the damn class. For now I will stick to my Microsoft book and make sure the next Class I sign up for doesn't requires Mr. Tsay's books!
