goes way beyond simple syntax issues,
By
This review is from: Advanced Visual Basic 2005 (4th Edition) (Paperback)
So what exactly does Advanced Visual Basic 2005 mean? Well, the book is not about the elementary programming syntax. That stuff is [or hopefully it should be] easy to pick up. Instead, part of the text goes into some of the graphics widgets available to you. This is expanded into a discussion about designing intuitive user interfaces. One aim is to show how you can easily cobble together a non-trivial interface from what is available in the widget library.This segues naturally into using VB in ASP.NET applications, where you have a web server making dynamic HTML pages. So web forms and cascading style sheets get shown. Here, there are also demonstrations of how using Visual Studio as your development environment can greatly help your productivity. Other sections of the book then explain back end material. The designing of relational databases. Using Microsoft's SQL Server, naturally. So you can use the book as one way to learn SQL. Note though that the presentation doesn't go into the formal theory of databases (e.g. normal forms and all that). So you don't need much mathematical background to understand it. Plus there is also a nice talk about XML files for sharing data across computers. The table design topics are probably where the most complexity exists in the text.
