5.0 out of 5 stars A great VB book that you'll want to add to your library....., March 30, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Custom Controls Library (Paperback)
Excellent book on ActiveX creation. The 101 controls included on the CD alone justify the price, not to mention that they all come with source code so that they can be extended. As an added bonus you'll not only learn about creating ActiveX; the controls included cover topics like image processing, data display and manipulation, buttons, text manipulation and much more. While not a book for the complete novice, this book is something I think you'll want to add to your library; if I could have I would have given this a 20 instead of a 10!

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth Double the Price!!!!, March 20, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Custom Controls Library (Paperback)
This book is well worth the price just for the executable controls you get. The source code is even included. All controls are explained in great detail and even suggestions for enhancing them are included. Most of the controls mimic commerically available controls costing hundreds of dollars each. And with this book and cd-rom, you can even change the way they work without having to wait on a vendor to add the functionality for you!
