5.0 out of 5 stars The perfect book when you are into serious DB Development, 1 Aug 1999
By A Customer
I was looking for a good book which discusses a lot about MTS. And boy, do I find one. And I found it in a book about databases. So I got several bonuses. This is one book that I would bring to office and brag to my officemates. A complete reference. And I feel safe with this book on my side.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor Organization. Explained Nothing., 31 Jul 1999
By A Customer
If you know your stuff, then you might be able to follow this book. Of course, you wouldn't need it either. If you actually want to learn the topics he discusses -- not discusses, but writes words about -- get another book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent in-depth real-world exploration of VB6 DB Coding, 22 Jun 1999
By A Customer
This book is big and expensive, but well worth the cost and reading effort. It covers literally everything relating to VB6 database development and is well grounded in the traditions, methods and techniques of Visual Basic database development for business generally. ADO is effectively covered and the book demonstrates impressive Front-end design techniques for both "heads-down" data entry and decision-support, online-analytical-processing. Querie and client-server database design issues are explored with an in-depth nontrivial seriousness. MTS, multidimensional data analysis and much more is also well covered. I can't recommend this book highly enough. It is a difficult but immensely rewarding work. Thank-you Roger Jennings!

Overall, a good book. However, Jennings needs to reorganize this thing. While reading the first two chapters, I thought I had wasted my money. Read more
