Beginning Visual Basic 6

Beginning Visual Basic 6

by Peter Right
Publisher: Wrox Press

Review

This book is a MUST for anyone who truly needs a 'beginner' book. However, even the experienced programmer will find a alot of useful information. Beginning VB 6 takes you from literally nothing to DB access to working with APIs. Peter Wright's sense of humor and straight forward explainations will both keep you interested and de-mystify the Visual Basic environment. Unlike all the other 'Beginner' books I have previously read, only Beginning VB 6 has a literal line-by-line explanation of the code. I can honestly say, you will not regret buying this book. Check out other reviews at Amazon.com. They are all excellent..
