1.0 out of 5 stars An all-time low, May 27, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Teach Yourself Microsoft Visual Interdev in 21 Days (Teach Yourself Series) (Paperback)

This book was so pathetic - many of the examples simply don't work. I wasted hours trying to figure out why. The MacMillan web site has some updates - and THEY ARE WRONG, TOO.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is a waste of time, January 27, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Teach Yourself Microsoft Visual Interdev in 21 Days (Teach Yourself Series) (Paperback)

This book is awful. Don't buy it. I got it for free and decided it wasn't worth my time to continue reading it. It wastes too much time on cutesy introductory material. I simply want to know how to use the VID tool. I don't want an all encompassing, yet thoroughly vague explanation on every other web topic.

2.0 out of 5 stars OK... Now What......?, October 9, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Teach Yourself Microsoft Visual Interdev in 21 Days (Teach Yourself Series) (Paperback)

The book gives some good examples of code but nothing you can't find on the Net. The thing that made me the most frustrated and still does is when he would show step-by-step how to access a "Access Database" with DTC's but then would end there.... You would go and test it out i.e. click the button to send the form info to the database and nothing would work - in the book it just shows you how to access the ODBC Database but NEVER FOLLOWS THROUGH on how to tell you any other little code lines you may have to manually add yourself or something - So I got as far as connecting the Database of Access97 ooh boy I could do that before I wasted my money..
