Customer Reviews & Comments
This book has some highlights, but it is tightly authored to the VS.NET version it comes bundled with. Some folks will find this a bonanza, but that's only if you're willing to rubber-stamp your exam. There's abundance of Wizard code specific to VS.NET 2003 version. I am working with VC# Express 2005 and many of the things are N/A in this environment. ... anyway, I could sort my way out by looking at the samples and learn that what used to be a Control is nothing more than a Class that derives from Controls and some additional boilerplate. To make things worst, this book assumes you will be using Wizards and dispenses any explanation on why / how things work. In addition to all the above, by 11/2005 standards the book itself is dated as C# does include now support for generics, which is not present in this book. I still do give it a 3 just because I like some of the stuff, and it simplifies a couple of learning points. BTW: A good POV on using Wizards is here --
