5.0 out of 5 stars A Dash of it all!, August 18, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Active Xpert (Paperback)

This book is great. It lead to the development of my website, skidvis.com Thru this book I learned the fundamentals of ASP, HTML, ActiveX and so much more. This book is the perfect book for those trying to learn VB and all the above mentioned items. It covers them all in great detail without getting too complicated. I highly recommend it and turn to it often!

This book has in-depth coverage on COM and ActiveX ---though a bit steering on Web. I refer to it often, the smart comments is quite illuminating. The issues around ActiveX are clearly iterated. a joy reading it!
