Is This What We are Looking For?, October 5, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Customizing AutoCAD 2002 (Autodesk's Programmer Series) (Paperback)
The only book that is currently available in the market and focuses on AutoCAD customization is the one written by Mr. Tickoo. The idea of writing such a book is really good, but unfortunately the book is not what readers are looking for.
- It covers some irrelevant topics such as AutoCAD Calculator, Template Files, and Database Connectivity
- The book is old fashioned. It is written for older versions of AutoCAD and not updated for latest versions properly. You can refer to the chapter that covers Slide Shows to get what I mean.
- The book does not cover important topics such as metric-english variaties in AutoCAD
- The chapters discussing Programming languages are superficial and it seems they exist just to increase the size of the book. Please refer to chapters covering VBA and VLISP
Unfortunately there is no other choices for AutoCAD users but if there was a better resource I wouldn't buy this book at all.
