Summary: Great example project, introductory explanations and tips.
Comment: I liked this book for a number of reasons. First, it has a great sample Visual Interdev project to learn from. Second, the author gives the type of tips/recommendations not explained in documentation but needed in working in the real world. Finally, what is explained is explained well. My only criticism is that the book could have covered more topics and details, but then I don't think that is the nature of these "Dummy" books. Of all of the books on VI that I have purchased (or returned) I like this one the best and would recommend it highly.

Summary: The examples confused me
Comment: I bought Visual Interdev 6 for Dummies because I wanted a quick tutorial aimed at someone with no previous exposure to Interdev. I was looking for something that would walk me through all aspects of the program in a way that was easy to understand. Unfortunately, this book didn't meet my expectations at all. The first few chapters gave an adequate overview of the layout of the various windows, menu bars, etc., but as soon as the book progressed into work samples I started feeling lost. The progression of the sections didn't seem to flow together in a logical way, and the practice scripts and projects were sometimes poorly explained. By the time I reached Chapter 10 or so I was feeling like a total imbecile for not understanding the examples. I finally gave up on it and bought Practical Visual InterDev 6 by Michael Amundsen, which has exactly what I wanted--clear, concise, step-by-step examples. I breezed through the whole book and now feel like an Interdev pro! And I wish I had never bought Visual Interdev for 6 for Dummies...it was a waste of my money and time.

Summary: Great Book
Comment: I own several VID 6 books and this one answered many questions the others didn't. It was easy to understand and I would highly recommend to anyone. The book doesn't cover everything; however, it covers the most common tools you need to get the job done. Wonderful book!
