5.0 out of 5 stars The Blue Book was the BEST of six books I Brought, 10 Dec 1998
By A Customer
This Book has Relevant examples of VisC++ 6.0. It is easy to follow and well written with the intention of the Authors to act as guides rather than Instructors. I strongly reccomend this book to anyone wishing to learn Visual C++ 6.0

5.0 out of 5 stars I bought Six Visual C++ 6.00 beginners books & ....., 4 Dec 1998
By A Customer
This was by far the best.

Its relevent to Version 6.0, many of the others were talking about subjects that were related to Windows 3x etc.. eg they were the same old books with just the covers changed and really just repeating the Scribble Tutorial. The Authors really do act as guides throught the book and provide useful information for any beginner programmer such as myself. Also the book is set out in an easy to follow style that makes following the Author's instructions exceptionally easy, with a wide variety of samples to follow. The only downfall is a few typos in the printed sample codes. However with the CD on board they are easy to rectify .

I strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn Visual C++.

(( I'm off to write 5 real bad reviews now ))

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad....but not that good either, 13 May 2001
By A Customer
this book is nothing special. I dont know if it was just me finding it hard to understand everything it was saying or if it was just the book did not explain it too well. Its full of examples which are all very good as its not just all 'hello world' stuff for differant controls.

However when it was going over the MFC by example i did not feel it covered the reasons for doing everything very well.

Worth a buy if you already have a basic understanding of MFC and are looking for a bit more hands on experiance, however if you are totaly new to this you may be better off finding another book.
