5.0 out of 5 stars The Best VC++ MFC 6 ever writen, 22 Mar 2001
By A Customer
This book it just wonderful , I been programming Database since 1994 and I never found a real book in visual c++ that has 668 pages of Visual c++ Database programming (until this book). It covers all the aspect that we need like (vc++ Database programmers ) : running select , delete , update, insert From any technique like DAO (the old one ) DAO and OLE DB and API ODBC He show you and explain you the code and explain you how to use Database Programming using regular VC++ and also ATL ,COM , Web-Based Databases He also show you the OLAP OLE DB Consumers . In general is explain you how to work with the MS-SQL SERVER DATABASE (NOT Oracle or Informix each of them has it won tricks!) those section I found use full for me ,Developing ATL OLE DB Consumers Catching Errors (very imported ) Developing OLE DB Providers , how ever this book focused in the OLE-DB AND SOME API ODBC and not in much in the ADO and DAO .

There is not bla bla bla in this book.

VC++/C++ experience level : You must know to use the VC++ 6 and ( also C++) , and general ATL programming So if you are not experience in those subjects you should learned them before jumping to this book if you already know VC++ but not an ATL so get an ATL book and this book also , I believe after few chapters on the ATL programming you could use this book.

Database experience level :

You should know SQL language and some basic sql-server DBA but realy the basic. HOW EERVER if you never wrote any ODBC /DATABSE software befor and you don't know what is recordset or execute , learn this topic in visual basic database programming befor reading this book in vc++.

English level : The English level here is understandable to also that not an English speakers.

1.0 out of 5 stars Rubbish - no information content, 10 Dec 1999
I bought this for the OLE DB content. In the 200 pages or so of the OLE DB section that I skimmed through I found no useful information at all. These pages consist entirely of worked examples including masses of obscure code. But the author doesn't explain any of the commands he is using. Nor does he explain any of the (many) OLE DB interfaces. Even worse, the book is nearly all about developing basic database GUIs - which can be done in a fraction of the time using VB and ADO. I learned nothing at all from this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Tis book is Absolute and utter Rubbish., 5 Sep 2001
By A Customer
Poor content and very badly explained and I am only talking about Ole Db as I was not interested in ODBC. If you want to learn Ole Db then buy the following book it has a better explanation in one chapter than any other Ole Db book in print at present, it is short on Ole Db content but is very easy to understand and in my opinion esential for anyone learning Ole Db for the first time: "Beginning Components for ASP". Don't be put off by the heading this book is good on Ole Db, MTS and components using ATL.
