Product Description

Product Description

What is this book about?

For a web site to offer its users an experience that improves on that of newspapers or textbooks, it needs a way to change the information it contains dynamically – and that means it needs access to a data source. Through the combination of ASP.NET and ADO.NET, Microsoft provides everything necessary to access, read from, and write to a database, and then allow web users to view and manipulate that data from a web browser. In this book, we′ll show you how it′s done.

What does this book cover?

Packed with clear explanations and hands–on examples, Beginning ASP.NET Databases contains everything you′ll need on your journey to becoming a confident, successful programmer of data–driven web sites. In particular, we′ll look at:

  • Connecting to common data sources, including SQL Server and MS Access
  • Reading data with data reader and dataset objects
  • Creating and deleting records, and editing data
  • Displaying data with ASP.NET′s web server controls
  • Writing and using stored procedures from VB.NET code
  • Placing your data access code in reusable class libraries

The book closes with a real–world case study that consolidates the tutorials throughout the book into a practical result.

Who is this book for?

To use this book, you need a computer running either Windows 2000 or Windows XP Professional Edition. The examples it contains will not run on Windows XP Home Edition.

This book is for people who have some experience of programming ASP.NET with Visual Basic .NET, are familiar with the operation of the .NET Framework, and want to learn how to use ASP.NET to make data–centric web applications. No prior knowledge of database programming is necessary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive, professional and well structured introduction, 31 Jul 2002
By Mark Horner (Australia) - See all my reviews
It is not until you read a book that is dedicated to using databases in ASP.NET that you realize just how much there is to learn. This is a very readable & well structured book with excellent 'Try It Out' examples that provide easy to follow step-by-step guides.

Obviously understanding data readers, datasets, command objects and web server controls is vital but there are some rare and extremely useful chapters: componentization - leveraging class libraries for data access, performance, and a chapter that discusses Data-Driven ASP.NET application in the Real World that raises some very interesting issues; for example security tips, raising your own database errors & organizing your code.

The authors not only provide information that you would expect but they offer every encouragement to raise the bar by discussing ways to do things even better; for example 'A Better Connection String', creating Data Access classes, and fine tuning dataset & datareaders.

3.0 out of 5 stars A committee effort!, 23 April 2004
This book shows signs of having been written by too many people withdifferent ideas of who it is aimed at. In some places it moves along tooslowly, but in other places it tries to cover complex ideas without enoughexplanation.
I can't believe that many people buying this book are newto programming as seems to be assumed in some chapters.
Mostly uses WebMatrix and only really covers Visual Studio in an appendix.

2.0 out of 5 stars Errors, 2 Aug 2004
I must say I used to be a fan of Wrox publications,but This particular book is full of errors. As I worked through the book, I noticed that in some cases, The name of the object passed into parameters is wrong which made me read chapter 9, 3 times befor I could figure out what went wrong. This is not fair to beginners as you shouldnt be guessing what goes where when the book is meant to ease you into developing .net

I wouldnt say no to a refund as I have had to buy another ASP .NET book.
