1.0 out of 5 stars really for the absent minded, April 1, 2002
By 
This review is from: COBOL Programming Using the .NET Framework (Paperback)
Unless one is from another planet, or hasn't been reading about COBOL for a few years, there is hardly anything new in this book. All the COBOL specific material can be found FREELY at Fujitsu's website or in the Help System for the COBOL for .NET release candidate. The non COBOL stuff is either trivial (Object Model) or out of context (Windows 2000 API).
In a word, I was expecting new material and bought a compilation.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad, Don't Purchase, December 6, 2002

This review is from: COBOL Programming Using the .NET Framework (Paperback)
This book provides no value over Fujitsu NetCOBOL. Author uses same examples. Worse, Author provides no additional usefull information.

Chapter 8 covers Win 2000. This is a total waste since MS .Net uses CLR which runs on 98, ME, NT, 2000, & XP. My interpretation is that Author need some additional pages.

Bottom Line: Don't purchase this book. I did & wasted [money].
