2.0 out of 5 stars Better than I could do, but..., December 13, 1998
This review is from: Doing Objects in Microsoft Visual Basic 5.0 (Paperback)
I read this book after getting what I felt was a pretty good grasp of object oriented programming. By the time I'd gotten it 3/4 read I was completely confused. Since putting it down for a few weeks I've gotten back on track and have become proficient. I respect anyone with the gumption to write a book, but Deb has a way of confusing the simplest issue and her writing style is far from clear. On the positive side, I did glean clarification of some concepts but it was too painful. She should read Mark Warhol's book on The Art of Programming with Visual Basic - there's a writing style that works.

4.0 out of 5 stars Well written introduction to object oriented design using VB, October 10, 1998
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Doing Objects in Microsoft Visual Basic 5.0 (Paperback)
Overall, this book is a good introduction to object oriented design using Visual Basic 5. The examples chosen and their layout and usage in the manual could be improved. I would recommend this book to anyone that has a general understanding of VB, but has yet to utilize objects or classes.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best VB book I ever read, March 17, 2002

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Doing Objects in Microsoft Visual Basic 5.0 (Paperback)
In a very easy and straightforward manner, this book introduces the concepts of Object Oriented Programming and shows how it works in VB5. Deborah Kurata uses the GUIDS methodology, which is simple and very efective in any serious software project. OOP is a BIG time-saver, as it lets you create resusable buildind blocks, that can be compiled and called from any other applications you develop, keeping your code concise and easy to trace.
