This review is from: VB.NET: Your Visual Blueprint for Building Versatile Programs on the .NET Framework (With CD-ROM) (Paperback)
Easy and fast introduction to VB .NET - gives you the basics and more in an easily digested manner. I like the visual approach that helps in remembering things and easily create a "mental map" of VB.

good for beginners,
By A Customer

This review is from: VB.NET: Your Visual Blueprint for Building Versatile Programs on the .NET Framework (With CD-ROM) (Paperback)
There is a good book for beginners. Few things to note there are errors cropping up in his later chapters like the windows service installer excercises and asynchronous callback example, the update in edit data in datagrid. The last three chapters were very clumpsily put together in which someone with 7 years of exp cannot put together why they were even there when the explanation and example were of poor quality. Don't get me wrong, this is a very good dummies book, however after finishing the blueprint examples, a vb.net beginner wrox book would be the next book one should go for to fill in the gaps
