Product Description

From the Author
A whole new book!
The 2nd Edition of Inside Visual InterDev is entitled "Programming Microsoft Visual InterDev 6.0" - it is an entirely new book with 75% plus new material compared with the first edition.

The reviewer comments contained below my comments appear to relate to the 1st edition only.

This 2nd edition has more code samples and raises the bar to the Enterprise Developer. It covers VI 6.0 topics such as Design-Time Controls, Data Environment, Recordsets, Dynamic HTML, XML, 3-tier Architectures, MTS, COM, client-side and server-side scripting, stored procedures, MSMQ, server-side components, security, certificate server, ASP (of course) and much more!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for starting off... I liked the database sections, 6 Jul 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Inside Microsoft Visual InterDev (Microsoft Programming Series) (Paperback)
I was asked to develop some simple web pages for a database project using Visual Interdev and Active Server Pages, which I had never worked with. I usually learn a new RAD tool by taking code examples from a book an adapting them to my project. After becoming flustered with the lack of helpful examples in the "Using Visual Interdev" book, I switched to "Inside..."

I skipped to the chapters on the data form wizard and database development and got list and form pages up within a few days using the Data FOrm Wizard and other development tools. It did a good job of explaining the basic idea behind ASP and how Visual Interdev works.

It does waste time covering the basics of things like menu navigation, but I did like the step-by-step through the code generated by the Data Form Wizard.

I would recommend this book to database developers making the switch to web development who need a jump-start, but not to the seasoned developer who will find the majority of introductory chapters a waste.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very clear and concise overall account of V Interdev, 4 Dec 1999
By R. Chang (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have read several 'step by step' books and was getting confused. Then came this book which gave a very good overall coverage. Experience in object orientated programming is required to get the most out of this book

2.0 out of 5 stars This 2nd edition is not much better, if the first was bad, 26 Jul 1999
By A Customer
I saw author's comment that this second edition has so much improvement over the first, so I bought one copy. I haven't read the first edition, but this second edition is hardly an improvement over anything, IMHO. I think the problem is that this book doesn't talk about problem solving, nor provide any insight to the product (VI 6)inner function. Ironically this is a book from Microsoft press.

Of the 4 Visual Interdev books I have read, this one is the best. Good discussion of Design time controls and how to script them and of passing parameters.
