Customer Reviews & Comments
I used this book right away because it was one of the first VB 2005 books (though not the first out there). It had information on things I usually do which I found extremely helpful, such as details on search/replace in the RTF control and many others. I emailed the author and told him that he forgot the code in the replace feature in the RTF control (which I figured out anyway), but he graciously responded promptly and said he would send me the update which I thought was nice of him. Excellent beginner/intermediate book and does have some advanced feature material discussed. This book along with "Programming Visual Basic 2005: The Language" by Balena are books that should be on every VB.net programmers shelf.
