1.0 out of 5 stars Nathan Wallace's Delphi 3 Example Book, May 15, 2000

Mike Lucek - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nathan Wallace's Delphi 3 Example Book (Programmer's Example Series) (Paperback)

A total waste of money. Includes a CD which only has hyperlinks to a non-existent web site, the contents of the CD is contrary to what is described on the back cover. Email's sent to the publishers regarding the CD were ignored.

Do not include this book in your library. The Delphi Online Help is of better value.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't Purchase this Book, August 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Nathan Wallace's Delphi 3 Example Book (Programmer's Example Series) (Paperback)

Well...I agree with all the comments submitted by the other customers. The website cannot be found and there's no Source Code in the CD. Those who have purchased this book have been cheated by the publisher and the author. I think all of us deserve our refunds.Don't buy this book or u will regret. I've no choice to put 1 star..in fact no star at all for this book.Tried contacting the e-mail add in the CD but no such mail.Spread this news around to avoid others being cheated.

1.0 out of 5 stars Book is redundant, November 25, 1999

This review is from: Nathan Wallace's Delphi 3 Example Book (Programmer's Example Series) (Paperback)

I was very dissatisfied with the content of the book. The examples given were very rudimentary and offered less than the Delphi help file.
