What are folks saying about the "Programming Microsoft Visual
Basic .NET for Microsoft Access Databases" book? |
| |
- Mark Palmer, an experienced Australian developer, comments the
"book has been extremely useful in learning VB.NET." After
reading the book, he built a Windows applications deployed in several
large organizations.
- Saad Al-Hadawi, a senior programmer analyst at a large HVAC firm,
writes: I did browse all the books pertaining to ADO.NET at the
bookstore before settling on yours. I chose your book because no other
book has more details on using ADO.NET with Microsoft Access databases.
I want you to know that I am happy that a book like yours actually
exists, and that I bought it.
- Tuan Dinh, an Australian-based mainframe programmer converting to
client/server development, reports that the book "helped a lot in his
study." After finishing the first six chapters, he was able to
"develop similar types of projects on his own." He
particularly valued the full code listing and setup instructions for the
sample database applications, which he says is not so common on other VB
books that he purchased.
- Andre Torng visited Amazon.com and left this appraisal of the book:
This book is definitely for MS Access developers. All examples use
Northwind.mdb. The first part introduces Visual Studio .NET environment
using many practical MS Access examples...The second part introduces you
to ADO.NET using MS Access with many practical examples like add,
change, delete, master/detail...I've read VB.NET books and taken VB.NET
courses but didn't have the confidence to convert my applications. With
this book, I'm all set to go.
- Charles Loprinzo, a Database Developers Group member, published
a full-length
review of the book at this site. Here are some excerpts
reflecting his view on the book: ...If you are one of the many
programmers who want to take advantage of Microsoft’s leading edge
technology, couple it with your current knowledge of Microsoft Access,
and examine the many possibilities, then this book is for you...There
are plenty of coding examples which show exactly what he is trying to
convey in each section without forcing the reader to follow step-by-step
like most beginner's books do.
- Paul from London, England wrote me this message with his evaluation
of the book: I went to a bookshop in the Charing Cross Road, here in
London, and bought the book. And I’m loving it!
- Cary Prague who owns DatabaseCreations, Inc., a leading supplier of
packaged solutions for Access developers and users, appraised my book
this way: I just bought six copies of your book titled "Programming
Microsoft Visual Basic .NET for Microsoft Access Databases". The
book is required reading for my entire development staff.
- Paul Eade, an Access/web developer from the Pacific Northwest, left
this review at Amazon.com: ...As a long-time Microsoft Access developer,
what I want to learn is not everything about .NET, but about .NET with
Access. This book must have been written just for me...This book covers
Windows Forms and Web Forms in .NET. It covers XML. It covers coding
techniques. It covers security. What a great head start I now have on
.NET! I'm psyched, and I'm going to redo my website in .NET and Access!
- A fan of my earlier books offered these comments about my VB.NET
book for Access developers: I rely heavily on your several of your books
and just bought "Programming Microsoft Visual Basic .Net for Microsoft
Access Databases". I look forward to reading through it and doing the
examples...Thank you so much for the work you continue to do. I have
told my manager that I have found an author that I like and I'm going to
stick with him.
