Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Easy Learning Comment: I have used several books to learn Visual Basic and have used it in writing programs. This book was a real treat. It filled in many gaps that were left by other books and even by college course work. The book is very clear and easy to use. The author goes step-by-step, teaching concepts and working through examples. There are sample programs included on CD or to download to make the process hands-on and understandable. I highly recommend it. Customer Rating: Summary: just an ok book Comment: This book is great to get your feet wet in VB.NET because it has great tutorials on how to do the basic things in VB. The teaching style is pretty good keeping a good pace through-out the book and almost every single explanation is very well written. Also, all code examples worked for me. The problem that I have with this book is that it fails to introduce the reader to the big picture. This book will show you how to do all this handy-dandy stuff and after reading it, you will easily be able to build your own applications but you wont have a true understanding of VB.NET. You won't have a clue how all of it works together wich will put a demper in your coding abilities. I would only recomend this book if you buy it along with another book such as; [...] Customer Rating: Summary: mindless repetition of the obvious Comment: How many times do you have to read that, in order to create a menu item you have to Press down the arrow key ...... and then Press down the arrow key .... and then Press down the arrow key ??!! the author can fill pages and pages with this kind of "step by step" instruction. It's not a matter of being new or not to VB .NET, it's a matter of expecting the author to assume that the reader has some common sense. Avoid this book! Customer Rating: Summary: Casual VB user stepping into VB.Net Comment: As a casual programmer in VB I thought this book was good as a refresher for VB and a stepping stone into VB.Net. It is not a book for experienced VB programmers wanting to learn VB.Net. A lot of the examples are strictly VB while telling you some of the differences in VB.Net. Bottom line: If you are experienced in VB do not buy this book. If you are Mr. Joe Blow, "I program once in a while in VB, and need a refresher course, and I want to delve into VB.Net", by all means buy this book. Customer Rating: Summary: The Best beginning book I have used so far Comment: I am a programming virgin and wanted to learn VISUAL BASIC.NET. I first purchased VB.NET programming for the absolute beginner and the SAMs Teach yourself VB.NET in 24h. These two books were good (SAMs Teach yourself VB.NET in 24h was better) but both emphasized typing in code rather than understanding the code. The explanations seemed lacking in comparison with the Microsoft VB.NET Step by Step book. The Step by Step book actually explained the code in better detail. I also found this book easy to follow and understand. This book was great. More Reviews
