5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Beginners to Mid Level Experienced Programmers, April 26, 2002
By 
Matthew Ozvat (Durango, CO USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Visual Basic .NET Black Book (Paperback)
Being a programmer with 3 years experience and developing in VB6.0. I found this book to be a great reference book for me while I began learning VB.NET. I would ask myself while developing.. 'I can develop feature 'x' in VB6.0, so how does VB.NET handle 'x'.. and look it up'

The Black Book doesn't dive into the philosophies of VB.NET, but rather delivers straight forward code examples of how to do it. For grunt programming and experienced VB6.0 developers, I feel this book is a must on every developers book shelf.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good, March 13, 2002
This review is from: Visual Basic .NET Black Book (Paperback)
The book is good for both experienced programmers and beginners. What I was looking well into was the ADO.Net chapters and they are very good.
I have more than 6 years of Delphi experience and this book was good for me to begin with and as reference.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just Great, February 7, 2002
This review is from: Visual Basic .NET Black Book (Paperback)
Never expected that the book printed before a final release of VB.Net will not have any mistakes. At least after reading and running many examples from the book in VB.Net (final release) I did not meet any problem.
The book is great for both experienced programmers and beginners. ADO.Net chapters are much better, than in any other books I've already read.
I have more than 5 years of VB experience and before this book I was afraid, that VB.Net will take a lot of time to be learnt. After 3 days with this book I'm pretty comfortable with VB.Net
