Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

A solutions-oriented approach to application development that uses the visual programming tools in Delphi for implementation. You'll learn how to effectively use OCX controls with Delphi, write Delphi custom components, share information with the clipboard and DDE, and build your own applications -- from concept to final product. Both authors have worked with Borland in the development of Delphi, and together know exactly what Delphi developers need -- in fact, it was the winner of the Delphi Informant Reader's Choice Award for 1996.

5.0 out of 5 stars A complete reference that is always at my side, September 17, 1997

The Delphi 2 Developers Guide is the authoritative source I consult for advanced programming topics in Delphi. This book is aptly marketed as an expert level book. It goes well beyond the scope of the "This is Delphi" books typically found on store shelves. An underrated feature of this book is its comprehensive appendices of error codes. I highly recommend this book to anyone serious about Delphi programming
