4.0 out of 5 stars Great book for beginners, 21 Jul 1999
By A Customer
Although I have some experience in the computer field (I am an IS student), this was the very first book I've ever studied Visual Basic from. I must say that it explains a broad variety of topics in a very easy-to-comprehend fashion. I was only somewhat disappointed that OLE and ActiveX were barely covered.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Book for Beginners, 9 May 1999
By A Customer
As a beginner to Visual Basic, I thought that the book was pretty good. I think it covers most of the basics and does a fairly decent job of laying out the information needed to move on to more advanced features. If you are a quick learner, this book will go fast, and you will soon need more advanced materials. Having said that, I think the book is a bit pricey for the user who has some sort of an idea concerning programing, otherwise, it is worth the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very goog book to begin with, 2 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Programming in Visual Basic: Version 5.0 (McGraw-Hill International Editions) (Paperback)
This book is good for those who just want an introduction to VB but it doesn't cover most of the very important topics such active X componenets and doesn't go deep into database programming.
