5.0 out of 5 stars Appleman's writing style makes complexity understandable, 5 Nov 1998
By A Customer
The author's logical, step-by-step description of how ActiveX really works, coupled with abundant sample code, makes this book a winner. Appleman resists the temptation to re-hash the Microsoft documentation, and instead offers a path to understanding ActiveX that is lucid and interesting. His writing style makes this complex technology understandable for all levels of VB programmers. The sample code offered on the accompanying CD is an education unto itself. It is very informative to see how the heavy-hitters write VB code, and Appleman doesn't disappoint. I learned to approach my own programming a little differently by going over his code.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book!, 2 Nov 1998
By A Customer
I only have one problem with this book. The title! It suggests that only programmers interested in developing ActiveX components should read it. This book should in fact be required reading for ANY VB programmer.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very, very clear presentation of how & why to use ActiveX, 29 Oct 1998
By A Customer
This book is written extremely clearly. He makes no assumptions about what you already know. Instead of explaining the mechanics of using ActiveX with VB, he explains WHY you would do so, what the choices are and what is really going on. It's hard to imagine a better presentation.
