3.0 out of 5 stars Good intermediate level book, April 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Visual Basic® 6 Secrets® (Paperback)
Only some naive people may expect to find a lot of secrets in such book. If you need advanced stuff buy specific books,i.e. VB + COM or VB + API. At least there you have a chance to find answers for your specific problems. This book mostly shows basic VB stuff and I've got some interesting ideas. Book is definitely more advanced than comparable VB books about everything. Author add a lot of VB6 topics, but it looks that code is created with beta version of VB6 and I can't either directly compile it or find an update on WWW site. And finding in some pieces of code that they're written for VB4 secrets book in 1995 isn't too polite to readers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book for VB5 and intermediate programmers, March 22, 1999
By 
Y. Mei (New York, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Visual Basic® 6 Secrets® (Paperback)
This book contains great information for all level VB programmers. It is a good study guide for beginners while it provides enough information to help intermediate and advanced developers move to a higher level.

It also helps VB5 or earlier version programmers because it indicates new features in VB6 with good explaination.

This book is organized in the way that you can easily follow. It is a great book for all VB developers.
