3.0 out of 5 stars Too many typos and other mistakes - no help from publisher, November 27, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Visual Basic 6.0: Environment, Programming and Applications (Paperback)
If you are trying to learn from this book - don't! I am sure that there are others that are better.

I'm using this book as a text for Visual Basic 6 class. The further you get into the book, the more mistakes (especially in the code for the exercises!). One Exercise (Chapter 11) was so riddled with mistakes that it was a guessing game.
I don't expect everything to be spelled out.
I do expect the example code to be complete, consistent and correct. Fortunately, I have a great teacher.

Also, most good books/publisher have a website where you can download errata/corrections to the mistakes and typos in the book. Prentical Hall has purchased the book. If there is a correction page, I couldn't find it. I usually can find such pages since I have worked in the publishing business.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great VB book, November 12, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Visual Basic 6.0: Environment, Programming and Applications (Paperback)
I have read many different programing books and most are just too wordy. I find this one to be to the point and direct. Great for all levels.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not just for Beginners, May 19, 2000
By 
"kingsoz" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Visual Basic 6.0: Environment, Programming and Applications (Paperback)
This book is for someone who already knows another programming language e.g Java, if you don't look for a beginners book. Its Ok for Quick results but remember the first four chapters are missing on the CD, but overall its a good buy.
