Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Visual Basic.NET How to Program, Second Edition
I had to buy this book for a programming class in Visual Basic.Net. I've previsously had a course in Visual Basic and got an A so I am not new to programming. I say all that to say, this book falls far short of what I hoped I was getting for $100. I've typed in some of the example progams word for word and cannot get a simple program to work, generating random numbers, for example. I'm at the point now where I'll have to go shopping for another book in this subject, the Deitel book is nothing ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Bottom Line.....................The Deitels rock!!

This book covers so much ground it is hard to find any criticism. I did read the other reviewers and found that what was disliked the most was the bold font and things of that nature. Hey, I like the style, but that's me. I think my only criticism is always their first chapter in which it describes "What is a computer". But despite that chuckle, the book rocks, bottom line.

I am a professional software developer and I still read this book often. You can't go wrong with authors ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Hard to like
Remember when you had to read classical literature, and it seemed like the author wouldn't change paragraphs for pages at a time, and it was hard to keep your place, pay attention, or care? Well, this book is exactly like that. It is chock full of "information", I'll give it that. Problem is, their examples DON'T WORK. I'm trying to do SQL database management using the code from the book for a template, and it doesn't function whatsoever. I've wasted hours because this book is worthless as a reference, ...

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good Book
I am still not very far into this but the instructions and examples are clear and easy to follow. It is a bit pricy but a great book for this subject.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - How could anyone like this book?
When I first got this book, I was impressed with all the code and the fancy layout. But around half-way through I realized the following:
1. A lot of the output was in something like DOS-boxes! Can you believe that. With such a powerful system as VB.NET, they're outputing to DOS-boxes!
2. The rest of the time output was to MessageBox.Show(), which is just a very simple standard IO dialog box. I finally got disgusted when the book got to geometric output and, instead of drawing circles, ... Read More
