DESCRIPTION:
Just a great book to have in the library! Must have! There just seems to be so much to learn with VB.NET and the .NET Framework to do things you've always done in VB or VBScript or any other language. Sure, you could go search for it, but just pick up this book. It'll save you hours and hours of hassle! This has been my most valuable book. Buy now!. Solid reference, resource I wish I had this book a year ago when I first started developing with .NET! Even though I'm no longer a newbie, I'm already using this book as a one-stop reference. I tested it against other books, and this one gave me the quickest solutions for making thread "wrappers", serializing objects in different ways, and writing a timer-based Windows service (three tasks I had in an average week).Overall, this cookbook has a little bit of everything, and the dense examples and explanations are so much better than the typical .NET programming boo. Joseph Latimer said Great Format, Great Content!. Finally, a book with one-stop shopping for VB.NET! I've read several cookbook-style programming titles in the past, and I was pleasantly surprised to find this has much more depth than I expected. It can't cover everything (.NET is huge), but every time I pick the book up I learn something new. There are so many highlights--just browse through the table of contents and you'll see what I mean!Here are some of my favorites:* Send keystrokes to another app* Create a thread-safe control wrapper* Great data-binding tips (image-to-picture box,
