Good For Visual Basic Programmers August 21, 2008
1 out of 4 found this review helpful
If you're a Visual Basic programmer, which I am not, then you might get a lot out of this book. I was hoping that the authors would provide examples in both Visual Basic and C#, but unfortunately that was not the case. There are a few examples that use C# but not nearly enough to even come close to enabling me to understand the Visual Studio framework and .NET development environment.
Perhaps this is an excellent book, but for me it was a major disappointment.
