5.0 out of 5 stars CLP Fast Track: Lotus Notes/Domino 5 App Dev, February 19, 2001

This review is from: CLP Fast Track: Lotus Notes/Domino 5 Application Development (MCSE Fast Track) (Paperback)

To put it simply, Tim & Dave are the "Shakespeare's of Domino". I've been a avid reader of their previous book, Lotus Notes & Domino Essential Reference, and when I purchased this book I knew I could do no wrong. Coming from an administrative background,this book like the last one, allows me to not only prepare for the CLP Development Exams, but gives me a comfortable feeling about Notes Devlopment best practices. The simplicity, clear cut examples and the questions make this book a Pulitizer Prize for Domino Based books. Keep up the good work and I look forward to your next book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Some ideas..., June 8, 2001

This review is from: CLP Fast Track: Lotus Notes/Domino 5 Application Development (MCSE Fast Track) (Paperback)

I bought this book after i read the customer reviews here. Almost everybody think that this is a great book. But I'm not sure. After I started to read the book I realized that the book covers all the exam subjects but not enough depth. There are a lot of editing errors and also some info errors exists. I think there sould be two reasons to buy the book: First you would learn the exam concepts (which exists in Exam Guide from Lotus) and second there are three sample exams in the book.

I think IBM RedBook - Lotus Domino Release 5.0:A Developer's Handbook which available on-line (of course free) at IBM web site - is the only book one need to be able to pass not only 510,511,512 but the optional exams which are necessary to be a PCLP. There is one more document you will need that is Exam Guide from Lotus web site. By reading the exam guide you will learn the concept of the exams and you will find all the subjects in RedBook sufficiently depth. By the way I passed all four exams ( also optional LotusScript exam - covered in Redbook).
