5.0 out of 5 stars A classic introduction to OO for Visual Basic programming, 16 Dec 1998
By A Customer
This is one of the best written computer books I have read. It is an excellent introduction to object-oriented programming in Visual Basic.

2.0 out of 5 stars Better than I could do, but..., 13 Dec 1998
By A Customer
I read this book after getting what I felt was a pretty good grasp of object oriented programming. By the time I'd gotten it 3/4 read I was completely confused. Since putting it down for a few weeks I've gotten back on track and have become proficient. I respect anyone with the gumption to write a book, but Deb has a way of confusing the simplest issue and her writing style is far from clear. On the positive side, I did glean clarification of some concepts but it was too painful. She should read Mark Warhol's book on The Art of Programming with Visual Basic - there's a writing style that works.

5.0 out of 5 stars Change your altitude in VB Programming., 9 Dec 1998
By A Customer
An outstanding, unique, must-have, must-keep book and no other book can replace it (maybe the coming new book Doing Objects in VB 6 can).

You will learn the most powerful fundamental building block from this book and you definitely will benefit a lot from it. It's worth every penny (including shipping/handling).

Not for VB novice at all. But if you have basic skills in VB or you are already a VB developer, this book will change you forever in VB programming. You will never know you and VB can be so good until you read this book simply because no other books tell you how to do objects in VB.

It's not Teach Yourself VB in 2100 days, not VB by examples, not VB step by step. It's one of the best VB book I've ever read.
