Product Description

Product Description
In the years since it was first introduced, Visual Basic has quickly become the primary language of choice for more than half the developers in the United States. With each new version, users continue to discover more enhanced tools and improvements. And because it has such a wide user base, Visual Basic programmers now have a community of fellow users with whom they can share knowledge and techniques. Now you can find many of those intermediate to advanced tips and tricks in the Visual Basic 6 Bible.

This book goes beyond your basic user′s manual. In addition to providing you with complete coverage of Visual Basic 6, the Visual Basic 6 Bible serves as the essential resource designed to help you understand how and when to use the various tools and techniques available in Visual Basic. It features relevant, real–world sample code and applications that you can incorporate into your own projects.

The CD–ROM accompanying Visual Basic 6 Bible includes a wide array of popular components and demos, such as Advantageware, Apex, Modern Software, and Protoview.

From the Author
I want your feedback!
Like you, I got tired of "comprehensive" books that didn't cover everything or just rehashed the manuals. We tried to make this book as comprehensive as possible and included many real-world examples that you can use and adapt. As it's a large and complicated product, we probably missed some things. If you have favorite topics that didn't get heavy coverage in the book or if you come up with some useful variations on the examples we did, please send them to me at vb6bible@northcomp.com and we'll be sure to cover them the next time around. We're working hard to make this the book that you want to keep next to your computer while you program. Thanks for purchasing the book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent General Reference...., 2 Sep 1999
By A Customer
This is an excellent book for the intermediate or advanced user where users know exactly what they want and just need a quick reference guide. This is not a good book for learning VB6 or specialized topics such as Objects or API programming. Just a great general language resource. A must have for any developer library.
